Carried in Sunlight Lyrics by Martyn Joseph

Thunder and Rainbows (The Best We Could Find) 1988-2000

0

[Chorus]
And you're long gone now
Although you're still here
And your world is peaceful
And mine is full of fear
And it's warm down in your valley
But out here it's so cold
We're carried in sunlight
When the mind begins to fold
[Verse 1]
And what takes the place
Of memories and faces and places you've been?
And who is it now
That you see before you holding your hand?
And try as I might, could I reach you
And give you back some pride?
[Chorus]
You're long gone now
Although you're still here
And your world is peaceful
And mine is full of fear
And it's warm down in your valley
But out here it's so cold
And we're carried in sunlight
When the mind begins to fold
[Verse 2]
And I see the boy
Running down the road kicking dust with his feet
And I see a man
With hands to move mountains and rock me to sleep
As sure as the sun will be rising
Well, there's another time
[Chorus]
You're long gone now
Although you're still here
And your world is peaceful
And mine is full of fear
And it's warm down in your valley
But out here it's so cold
Guess we're carried in sunlight
When the mind begins to fold
[Verse 3]
One day I guess
Well, someone will come along and sing this for me
And there we will be
Running and jumping and sailing the sea
And there you can teach me the new things
To grow but never old
[Chorus]
You're long gone now
I know you're still here
And your world is peaceful
And mine is full of fear
And it's warm down in your valley
But out here it's so cold
Guess we're carried in sunlight
When the mind begins to fold
You're long gone now
I know you're still here
I know your world is so peaceful
I know mine is still full of fear
And it's warm down in your valley
And out here it's so cold
Guess we're carried in sunlight
When the mind begins to fold
We're carried in sunlight
When the mind just gets too old
Now, now, now
