I carry you with me, A ghost inside And in these shattered arms You're still alive. I carry you with me, A holy shrine And dogs and angels follow Right behind.
And could I be walking higher, Could I be right beside her ?
The bones they buried Will feed the trees But every word you ever spoke Is still in me.
And could I be walking higher, Could I be right beside her ?
And I will feel for you in the music. And I will send that river home. And I will cry for you sometimes When the night is down. And I raise my head up to the mountains, Talk to the birds and I fly 'cause the spirit lives on, When the body dies
And could I be walking higher, Could I be right beside her? Could I be walking higher Could I be right beside her?
