Ryan Adams - When You Cross Over lyrics

In Carolina There were pictures on the wall And the pain is lighter The house is empty now and only shadows fall And when you cross over I hope she's waiting there for you When you cross over Please know that I'll always love you When you cross over Into the spaces in the blue When you cross over I hope your pain returns into the light When you cross over tonight My brother Born in Alabama just as winter calmed My family moved to Carolina In the shadows of the pines and lumberyards And when you cross over I hope they're waiting there for you When you cross over Please know that I'll always love you When you cross over Into the spaces in the blue And may your pain return into the light When you cross over tonight I know you didn't wanna leave this way I know you tried your best to hide it I'm gonna love you now, anyway In Carolina Roses bloom beside the house Your brother and your sister, your mother and your father All of your friends gather around And when you cross over I hope they're waiting there for you When you cross over Please know that I'll always love you When you cross over To the space between the blue And all the pain dissolves into the light When you cross over tonight
