CARRY ME
Patty Griffin

Maybe they come by land

Maybe they come by sea

Maybe they've already come

Maybe they come by me

Slipping into the twilight

I ride the broken wave tonight

An old song on the radio

You knew a long time ago

An old song on the radio

Going out over the ocean


Maybe it's World War I

Maybe its World War III

Maybe it's Vietnam

Maybe we're on TV

Falling into the tall grass

Melting into the tall grass

Spilling out over the lip and

Into the ocean

Into the ocean


Carry carry carry me

Over the ocean, over the ocean, over the ocean, over the ocean

Over the sea


Maybe I've come so far

Maybe I'm on my knees

Maybe I'm dead or alive

Maybe I'm dead or alive

Maybe I'm none of these

Just an old song on the radio

Someone put on a long time ago

Going out over the ocean

Over and over the ocean

Over and over the ocean

Over and over the ocean
