about

Recorded/mixed by Eric Arm at Headroom Audio, West Hollywood, CA

lyrics

Next to the laminated proof of who I am I CARRY YOU
Amid the plastic and the paper, like a pearl I CARRY YOU

I keep you in my pocket, if not always on my mind
I hold you like a locket with a personal design

Sewn between the folds of my ambition and my cash I CARRY YOU
Unlike a baby, a little like a child I CARRY YOU

I tuck you into wallets, into purses, into me
I pen you into verses underneath the poetry

When I travel ‘cross the country, on the road or in the sky
You sit inside my breathing as the scenery goes by

And when you grow too tired to talk
And when your time is through
And when your legs are weary of walk
I'll carry you
