Trouble is her only friend

And he's back again

Makes her body older

Than it really is

And she says it's high time, she went away

No one's got much to say, in this time

Trouble is the only way is down, down, down

As strong as you were

Tender you go

I'm watching you breathing

For the last time

A song for your heart

But when it is quiet

I know what it means

And I'll carry you home

I'll carry you home

If she had wings she would fly away

And another day God will give her some

Trouble is the only way is down, down, down

As strong as you were

Tender you go

I'm watching you breathing

For the last time

A song for your heart

But when it is quiet

I know what it means

And I'll carry you home

I'll carry you home

And they were all born pretty in New York City tonight

And summer's little girl was taken from the world tonight

Under the stars and stripes

As strong as you were

Tender you go

I'm watching you breathing

For the last time

A song for your heart

But when it is quiet

I know what it means

And I'll carry you home

As strong as you were

Tender you go

I'm watching you breathing

For the last time

A song for your heart

But when it is quiet

I know what it means

And I'll carry you home

I'll carry you home
