Carry Me Home

Carry Me Home

Carry me home
Carry me home

On the feathers of angels
To the place where you roam
Where tears turn to raindrops
Oh carry me home

Carry me home
Carry me home

On the back of a redbird
No longer sad and alone
Where pain turns to laughter
Oh carry me home

On the winds of tomarrow
I’ll reap the seeds tht I’ve sown
Where hate turns to love
Wont you carry me home

Carry me home
Carry me home

On the wings of a dragon
To your castle of stone
Weigh my heart as I kneel
On my knee’s at your throne
And carry me home

Very pretty, Shari…rich images, a mixture of romance and fantasy that carries a lot of emotional depth.

Shari,

Yes, it’s vert pretty. I’ve read through some of your lyrics and this one is different because the story is well told and defined. You have a lot of talent and a beautiful way of expressing your feelings.

Thank you very much Tony. I usually dont let anyone read my songs but I wanted some input.Im a very private person and basically afraid to show my feelings to anyone.This is pretty much the only way I can.I dont know why I have decided to do this now but I am gratefull that someone is taking the time to read these.thank you !!!

Shari, I like White Dove better than dragon, but that’s just me. When I read the word dragon I almost freaked ha-ha. I didn’t think it fit. This is a really good song, there is only one thing wrong, I wish I had written it. lol
Bless you in all you do.

@Shari,

very pretty dear :). Looks like you are fully into Beach Boys Titles. “Carry me home”, Beach Boys, 1973 (just for the record).

But I can feel it sister - really, I like it. Good job, well done!!!

I like most of this, but have reservations about the Dragon/castle thing; that’s a departure, and change of focus. I agree it should be somewhat etherial, but there are places in the heart much stronger than blocks of granite. I’ll ponder this fabulous first draft and offer ideas later, after I’ve read it again a few times—prob’ly by email.

Deepest Love

Very romantic, very poetic. I just love the “where” lines:

Where tears turn to raindrops

Where pain turns to laughter

Where hate turns to love

... beautiful!

And I like the medieval twist you give it in the outro. Candice Night should sing it! Do you know Blackmore’s Night? They’re quite popular in Germany.

See you,
Bernd

Thank you soo much for the kind sentiments
God loves you,
