Lyrics

?Carried On?
Words & Music © 2004 Henry E. Harris III


Gather ?round by the riverside
Me in black, you in white
Little flowers dancing in your hair
Floating on the breeze like they just don?t care

Here we stand before our friends and God
A simple promise is all we?ve got?

Chorus:
I?ve been waiting? So long
Don?t know how I ever? Carried on

Be still my heart, such a vision to see
Like an angel descending on me
Little tears dancing in your eyes
Little tears of joy that you just can?t hide

Chorus:
I?ve been waiting? So long
Don?t know how I ever? Carried on

(Bridge)
When I think of all these wasted years
Cast a drift in my own ocean? of falling tears
Thank God I found you

Let the bells ring through the city
Let the doves fly across the valley
Let the artists and the poets dream
Let the band play on and the angels sing

Chorus:
I?ve been waiting? So long
Don?t know how I ever? Carried on

Let the bells ring through the city
Let the doves fly across the valley
Let the artists and the poets dream
Let the band play on and the angels sing

Chorus:
I?ve been waiting? So long
Don?t know how I ever? Carried on
