"Will Carry On" lyrics

"Will Carry On"

I wanna be like a bird
Or just a feather
That you place into your hair
For the wind that picks it up
And moves it to and fro in the air
Like a river that it floats along
Like a song will carry on

I, I don't want to move mountains
I like them just
Where they are
I, I want to lift the curtains
From my heart, from your heart

What is that we've heard
What is that we're thinking
What have we been letting in
From the feeling of the wind
The movement of the air we're in
Do the waters beat wide across the divide
Through the rising sun

We may never be perfect
Maybe that is not the point
Search to know the language
Of our part
From our heart

I, I don't want to move mountains
I like them just where they are
I, I want to lift the curtain
From our hearts
From the start

And we'll be like a bird
Or just a feather
That you place into your hair
For the wind that picks it up
That moves it to and fro in the air
Like a river that it floats along
Like a song
Like a song
Will carry on
We'll carry on
