Lyrics

I carry you with me.
Your voice a soft whisper on the breeze
carried on the wind across the seas,
in my mind
in my soul
in my heart
you're evermore.

I'm alone in this world,
Or sometimes it feels,
Because in dark moments I seem to forget.
That I had love one day
Long ago,
When the world still made sense.
When there was no hole in my world
When I was complete
When still I could touch your hand.

I carry you with me.
Your voice a soft whisper on the breeze
carried on the wind across the seas,
in my mind
in my soul
in my heart
you're evermore.

But there are times now on a cold winter's day
When I'm lost in the woods,
And I'm so alone,
That through a thick cover of clouds and mist,
I feel the warmth of a welcoming sun,
And I know that you are leading me home.

Instrumental

I carry you with me.
Your smile a sweet song
To take me higher and move me along.
In my being
In my words
In all what's lost, one thing remains

When the rain falls down
Quiet, no sound.
I'll raise my face to the foreboding sky
And open my mouth and take in the rain.
And it fills me up
