Green river flows like grass melting.
Later it will run black down it's track into an ocean.
She stands on the bridge,
dim light on her back.
Well, someday
I will carry you.
I will carry you.
I will carry you.
I will carry you.

I wanna float higher
above waves of electric wires
and stare down onto the street.
I see a drunk with kiln glazed eyes,
tellin' me about the girl I should meet someday.

I will carry you.
I will carry you.
I will carry you.
I will carry you.
Ooh.

musical interlude

I will carry you.
I will carry you.
I will carry you.
I will carry you.
I will carry you.
I will carry you.
