I sat down and wrote you a letter, begging for a second chance
But I ain’t got no stamps
I filled out all the pages with words and pretty phrases
But you ain’t got no time for that
Instead, you’re moving on, driving east, singing along
To your brand new favorite song I’ve never heard
My restless young redeemer, oh boy, you should’ve seen her
Well I guess that we all get what we deserve
Chorus 1
Carry you inside my heart, carry you inside my soul
Carry you inside my blood, forevermore…
Verse 2
I sat down and wrote you a song, memorized the words to sing
But I ain’t got no strings
And even if I did I’m sure that I’d just fuck it up
Oh, I never knew when to keep my mouth shut
I hear you’re doing good with your new friends and neighborhood
Her new arms to hold you as you fall asleep
Me, I ain’t so well, I think everyone can tell
That I’ve lost the only thing I’s meant to keep
Chorus 2
Carry you inside my heart, carry you inside my soul
Carry you inside my blood, forevermore…
Bridge
Ohhh, your love’s an anchor inside of my soul
And I will carry you inside of this life, until the day I die
Ohhh, your love’s an anchor inside of my soul
And I will carry you inside of this life, until the day I die
Outro
I sat down and wrote you a letter, spelling out a slow goodbye
It was worth a try…
