Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh | Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh | I carry you on with me, I promised you
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh I carry you on with me, I promised you I would, and I do And I float around, show up unannounced In the places that you knew I draw you out from the edge of my mouth It feels good to say your name It's all I have now, what a wonderful sound it makes Ooh I was born with someone else's face A coward's anger and a fighter's rage I wait around for them to take my place And say, "Love, you're free now" I've been caught in some old boring joke The only punchline's how long it goes I'm in a song with one descending note I got nowhere else to be now No one tells you just how long you'll last Some go slowly, and some far too fast I've got time I never planned to have I got years and years of it I've been feeling like a wing-clipped bird Been repeating this old phrase I learned That no one's voice is ever really heard 'Til the whole world's screaming it I carry you on with me, I promised you I would, and I do And I float around, show up unannounced In the places that you knew And I draw you out from the edge of my mouth It feels good to say your name It's all I have now, what a wonderful sound it makes I was living in a stranger's house So I found shelter by the river's mouth And I go swimming 'til my feet touch ground 'Til I find something permanent I see the rain over the valley's edge Won't be long until the whole world's wet And all my drowning will make way more sense There ain't no better word for it I carry you on with me, I promised you I would, and I do And I float around, show up unannounced In the places that you knew I draw you out from the edge of my mouth It feels good to say your name It's all I have now, what a wonderful sound it makes Oh Whoa
