"THIS LOVE WILL CARRY"

Words and Music by:
DOUGIE MACLEAN

VERSE # 1:
It's a thin line that leads us
And keeps us from all shame,
And dark clouds quickly gather
Along the way we came.
There's fear up on the mountain
And death out on the plains.
There's heartbreak and heartache
In the shadow of the flame.

CHORUS:
This love will carry,
This love will carry me.
I know this love
Will carry me.

VERSE # 2:
The strongest web will tangle.
The sweetest bloom will fall
And somewhere in the distance,
We try to catch it all.
Success is but a moment
And failure's always near.
You look down at your blistered hands
As turns another year.

VERSE # 3:
These days are golden.
They must not waste away,
For they are like that flower,
And soon, they will decay.
'Though by storms, we are weakened,
Uncertainty is sure.
But, with the coming of the morn,
It's ours forevermore.
