Bruce Hornsby And The Range Carry The Water Lyrics

Carry The Water Lyrics

Some live life with eyes that don't see

 They look away at the time of your greatest need

 Some talk, some'll just do, some turn their back

 Turn around and just walk away I know I've done that

 Lonely Days and lonely nights

 Easy to be cynical never put yourself on the line

 I'd like to reach out well why don't I

 Take the load up off your back I'd like to try

 

 Let me carry your water

 Let me carry the weight

 I will bear your burden

 Let me carry the load

 

 Working hard sweating all day in the long hot sun

 Feel alone with the heavy load you're not the only one

 Bossman say time to jump we say how high

 If you need a hand getting off your feet baby I'll try

 

 I want to cover you the the sea on the sand

 Easy to be cynical never take a stand

 Easy for me not to give a damn

 I'll ask you to call for me and I'll give you a hand

 

 Let me carry your water

 Let me carry the load

 I will shoulder your burden

 Let me carry the load

 

 Lonely nights and lonely days

 You wait for someone to come along and sweep you away

 I'll put myself out there it just might feel good

 I don't always do that but I think I should
