Through the shadows, dark as shame I can still hear your voice falling down with the rain Washing memories from the trees 'Til this road's covered over and lost in the leaves Careless children, fresh as sin I was your trouble when you were my friend Sweet as rain on hallowed ground And one endless summer that ended somehow Heal the old wounds, lay me down Take me home to hallowed ground On the water, on the wind Where the dream is born again Oh, carry me home I walked the long road 'til I found Each step took me further from where I was bound Bruised and broken in my soul And longing for something that we used to know Heal the old wounds, lay me down Take me home to hallowed ground On the water, on the wind Where the dream is born again Oh, carry me home We were chasing the grey wind And wasting our days in the sun But stand and deliver And peace like a river will run Walked the long road 'til I found Each step took me further from where I was bound Heal the old wounds, lay me down Take me home to hallowed ground On the water, on the wind Where the dream is born again Oh Heal the old wounds, lay me down Take me home to hallowed ground On the water, on the wind Where the dream is born again Oh, carry me home Carry me home! Play the blues, boy!
