Текст песни
[Verse 1] You tucked a paper kite inside your coat For the walk beyond the old ferry boat A button moon was sewn upon your sleeve And you said, “There’s more than we can see” [Pre-Chorus] Past the orchard gate, past the leaning sign You took my hand like it had always been mine [Chorus] Oh, carry me where the tall grass bends Where every little road makes friends We’ll trade our worries for a jar of rain And find our way back home again [Verse 2] A robin hopped beside the garden chair With a crumb of toast and a fearless stare You named him August, though he wouldn’t stay He flew off laughing at the end of day [Pre-Chorus] Past the rusted gate, past the county line You spun me round beneath the sycamore vine [Chorus] Oh, carry me where the tall grass bends Where every little road makes friends We’ll trade our worries for a jar of rain And find our way back home again [Bridge] If the years put dust upon the windows If the map turns pale and hard to read I’ll remember how your yellow scarf flew Like a flag for all the dreams we’d need [Instrumental] [Final Chorus] Oh, carry me where the tall grass bends Where every little road makes friends We’ll trade our worries for a jar of rain And find our way back home again [Outro] The paper kite is waiting by the door I think we’ve found what we were looking for
