Carry It Home
A newborn's first cry carried across the water into a room lit in borrowed light. The distance starts to close, and every memory comes home with it.
Lyrics
Verse 1
The signal crossed the water in the night
A quiet room lit up in borrowed light
A brand new cry, a tiny, fragile sound
The brightest star on hallowed ground
Chorus
Carry it home, carry it home
Every memory we've ever known
Like sun through leaves, a gentle, golden hue
A world reborn, fresh and new
Verse 2
Barefoot on grass, the morning dew so deep
Secrets the old oak promised it would keep
Laughter that echoed, boundless and so free
Just open sky and you, and me
Chorus
Carry it home, carry it home
Every memory we've ever known
Like sun through leaves, a gentle, golden hue
A world reborn, fresh and new
Bridge
The quiet hum of summer, long ago
A simple joy, a gentle, steady flow
Before the shadows stretched, before the fear
Just endless days, year after year
Chorus
Carry it home, carry it home
Every memory we've ever known
Like sun through leaves, a gentle, golden hue
A world reborn, fresh and new
Outro
The signal crossed, a promise in the dark
Leaving its gentle, everlasting mark
A whispered hope, a light that won't decay
Guiding us home, come what may
