Lyric

Morning finds your name on my tongue

Salt on the rail, sea air in my lungs

I came in tired, you came in kind

Held my gaze and rearranged my mind

Every scar had a story to tell

Every small hurt kept me under a spell

Then your voice cut clean through the smoke

And I learned how to carry hope

Carry hope, carry hope

Through the storm and the undertow

Carry hope, carry hope

When the whole world says to let go

I won’t fade, I won’t fold

I’ll keep moving, I’ll keep gold

Carry hope, carry hope

That’s the road I know

Late train windows, rain on the glass

Names I forgot, and nights that passed

You put a fire in the quiet part

Beat back the cold in my chest and heart

Every fear had a shape in the dark

Every doubt left a bruise and a mark

Then your voice cut clean through the smoke

And I learned how to carry hope

Carry hope, carry hope

Through the storm and the undertow

Carry hope, carry hope

When the whole world says to let go

I won’t fade, I won’t fold

I’ll keep moving, I’ll keep gold

Carry hope, carry hope

That’s the road I know

From shore to shore, the same bright thread

From lost to found, from low to led

If my hands shake, I still reach through

For the life I found in you

Carry hope, carry hope

Through the storm and the undertow

Carry hope, carry hope

When the whole world says to let go

I won’t fade, I won’t fold

I’ll keep moving, I’ll keep gold

Carry hope, carry hope

That’s the road I know
