Listen to Excerpts from the album ‘Carry Me Home’
Lyrics
Carry Me Home | Blessings Be | Summer Day | ||
Popcorn on a Friday night Sitting close in the candlelight Moon is rising, and the wind’s just right Carry me home…Carry me home. More…. | Speak to me of home times Fill my heart with peace Gentle, rolling hills of green Under the summer moonlight More… | Morning in the meadow, walking in the country Summer day getting higher and higher. Butterfly floatin’ round a pretty purple flower Meadowlark singin’ like his soul is on fire. More… |
