Let The Spirit Carry Me
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
People come together its time for a union
C'mon c'mon c'mon lets do it right
When the darkness takes control and we lose the reason
C'mon c'mon c'mon lets see the light
Well let the faith shine down on me and let the spirit carry me
To a place where the stars don't know your name
To a town where the children fly
To a city where love comes naturally
In a country where devils die
I want to be there one more time
When my brain is on the floor I need you to help me
C'mon c'mon c'mon don't watch me die
And a friend is someone that you allow to help you
Carry me back carry me back hear me cry
Well let the faith shine down on me and let the spirit carry me
And I dreamt of a love that knows no gain
And our guilt didn't paralyse
Men and women and children can walk free
In the world where our devils die
I want to be there one more time
I want to be there one more time, I want to be there one more time
To a place where the stars don't know you're name
To a town where the children fly
To a city where love comes naturally
In a country where devils die
I want to be there one more time
Well let the faith shine down on me and let the spirit carry me
