To Carry You Away

Who we are I'll never know, but when we spoke
I knew you well
You knew me well
You loved me through and through

I never thought I would watch you leave us
From a room as a kid I held so close
I was a son made up on sand
You were the wind that let me go

I'll say goodbye
So this is goodbye
But I'm afraid to speak
With words I'll tell the story
You meant so much to me

And I'll say goodbye
So this is goodbye
But I'm afraid to speak
With words I'll tell the story
You meant so much to me

And like the night upon the nights to come
I will dream of you
And know that I will see you
I will see you soon
And like the night upon the nights to come
I will dream of you
And know that I will see you
I will see you soon

(I never thought I would watch you leave us
I never thought I would watch you leave)

Give me the strength
Give me the strength to carry on
Give me the strength

Tide, you are the ocean tide
The swells swept you away
I was a son made of sand
You were the wind that let me go
Tide, you are the ocean tide
The swells swept you away
I was a son made of sand
You were the wind that let me go

When the ocean tide has risen to high
And the waters have come to carry you away
Remember I will always be there
To sing you to sleep

I'll say goodbye
So this is goodbye
But I'm afraid to speak
With words I'll tell the story
You meant so much to me

And I'll say goodbye
So this is goodbye
But I'm afraid to speak
With words I'll tell the story
You meant so much to me
