We Carry You

Verse 1

The morning was clear and the skies were too blue

As planes changed the course of a world in a breath

With nowhere to turn and a final choice through

The ordinary turned to sudden death

Chorus

We carry you

We carry you

Through every dawn that found you gone

We carry you

We carry you

You were never standing still alone

Verse 2

The coffee is cold on the firehouse table

A cup left half-full in the rush of the door

They answered the call as they always were able

And walked into history, returning no more

Bridge

The towers stood tall till the heavy steel yielded

And dust swallowed up all the streets we once knew

We hold every name that the daylight concealed

And keep every memory alive that we crew

Chorus

We carry you

We carry you

Through every dawn that found you gone

We carry you

We carry you

You were never standing still alone

Outro

We carry you

We carry you
