Carry On

(album: The Close / Le Réveil - 2021)

You are peaceful like still water
Yeah you are deep as an ancient well
You're strong and rigid like bamboo
You're clear and focused just like a bell
I am stormy like the oceans
And I can be lighter like a breeze
I look backwards to go forwards
I grow and fall just like the leaves

But I could've gone a long long way with you boy
A long, long way
I should've gone a long long way with you

So go, carry on, the whole worlds gonna want you
I'll be here killing time checking over my shoulder
I'm counting the seconds now, I watch the seconds fly
Up and away until all this is over

Lazy driving down the backroads
Of the dream where you are from
I wish life could be like that always
But I guess life is very long

I could've done the whole big thing with you boy
The whole big thing
I would've done the whole big thing with you

But go, carry on, the whole worlds gonna want you
I'll be here killing time checking over my shoulder
I'm counting the seconds now, I watch the seconds fly
Up and away until all this is over

Until all this is over...
