Lyrics

Verse 1

Seven months of walking the same cracked road

I stopped counting the mile markers

You hummed a tune I pretended not to know

Then you said you'd never leave me in the cold

So I kept my hand on the wheel

Pre-Chorus

Every town is a ghost that forgot its name

Every door is a question

I don't answer anymore

Chorus

I would carry you across the ruined miles

I would carry you

Past the fences and the fires

I would carry you

I don't need a reason

I just need you here

I would carry you

I would carry you

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh oh-oh

Stay with me

Oh-oh oh-oh

Stay with me

Verse 2

You drew a map on the back of my hand

Said the ocean was still out there

I laughed because I'd stopped believing that

But your face made me believe it again

So we walked until the sun gave up

Pre-Chorus

Every river is a promise we can't keep

Every silence is a language

I am learning way too slow

Chorus

I would carry you across the ruined miles

I would carry you

Past the fences and the fires

I would carry you

I don't need a reason

I just need you here

I would carry you

I would carry you

Bridge

If the whole world goes quiet

If the whole world goes grey

I will find you

I will find you

(Find you)

I will find you

Chorus

I would carry you across the ruined miles

I would carry you

Past the fences and the fires

I would carry you

I don't need a reason

I just need you here

I would carry you

I would carry you

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh oh-oh

Stay with me

Oh-oh oh-oh

Stay with me
