Story behind the song
I wrote this song about 10-12 months ago as an exercise in writing in a different genre. My partner Marilyn died a couple of days ago, I've been totally numb but this came back to mind tonight so I decided to record it as a tribute to her. All the voices are me, but I'm hoping that I can get my daughter and at least one of Marilyn's granddaughters to add more vocals. Special thanks to David Hodge for the "heartbeat" line...
Lyrics
Carry me home, carry me home, carry me 'cross the river, Carry me home, carry me home, take me to my Lord. Carry me home, carry me home, carry me 'cross the river, Carry me home, carry me home, take me to my Lord. I see no church but I hear bells ringing, way across the water, I see no angels but I hear singing, way across the water. Carry me home, carry me home, carry me 'cross the river, Carry me home, carry me home, take me to my Lord. Carry me home, carry me home, carry me 'cross the river, Carry me home, carry me home, take me to my Lord. The river is deep and the river is wide, but I will cross the water, I will make it to the other side, I will cross the water. Carry me home, carry me home, carry me 'cross the river, Carry me home, carry me home, take me to my Lord. Carry me home, carry me home, carry me 'cross the river, Carry me home, carry me home, take me to my Lord. Though the day is over there is no night, across the water, My eyes are closed but I see the light, across the water, So carry me home, carry me home, carry me 'cross the river, Carry me home, carry me home, take me to my Lord. Carry me home, carry me home, carry me 'cross the river, Carry me home, carry me home, take me to my Lord.
