I’m not a tender hearted man
I can’t pretend to understand
My dye was cast when I was born
On a boat, in the middle of the river in a lightning storm
But I’ve been around this sun enough to know I’m wrong
Enough to know I’m wrong
Enough to know
If I go to California, make believe I want you
Make a new start, land a little part
Maybe turn it all around
I don’t wanna be the last one, to tell you that it’s all done
Drink away the pain, hop another freight
Maybe burn it to the ground
If the smoking ashes bring to me knees
Baby would you carry me?
Baby won’t you carry me?
I’ll meet you out there in the maze, might be cold but its a quiet place
There’s a silver lining in a pocket of gold
Cause it ain’t sentimental if you shiver when you make it home
When the desert makes a whirlwind loud enough to hear that song
You and I can sing along, you and I can sing
If I go to California, make believe I want you
Make a new start, land a little part
Maybe turn it all around
I don’t wanna be the last one, to tell you that it’s all done
Drink away the pain, hop another freight
Maybe burn it to the ground
If the smoking ashes bring to me knees
Baby would you carry me?
Baby won’t you carry me?
Don’t see the light, I’ll be your light (Shine on for me)
Don’t see the light, it’ll be alright (Shine on for me)
Don’t see the light, I’ll be your light (Shine on for me)
Don’t see the light, it’ll be alright (Shine on for me)
Don’t see the light, I’ll be your light (Shine on for me)
Don’t see the light, it’ll be alright (Shine on for me)
Don’t see the light, I’ll be your light (Shine on for me)
Don’t see the light, Don’t see the light
Don’t see the light
If the smoking ashes bring to me knees
Baby would you carry me?
Baby won’t you carry me?
