Carry On Lyrics - Singles - Dechant Anne E

A slender twenty four year old 

Walked herself across a road 

Under weeping trees 

Twenty years her memory 

As she held her father's hand 

And the family sang Amazing Grace 

In the pouring rain 

Before her feet a stone with words 

A gift for those she parted 

And in every cut of stone 

She found where she had started 

And she knew more who she was 

From the where that she had come 

And the things that bind us 

Carry on while I'm gone away 

Carry on with a smile on your face 

I'm as big as you keep in your heart 

And there I'll stay. I'll remain 

As you in me. There I'll be 

She ran her hand across the stone 

And heard her mother's laughter 

And promised to tell each one 

The story of their grandma 

And the things that had been been taken 

Made a vow to give her own 

Be the tie unbroken 

Carry on while I'm gone away 

Carry on with a smile on your face 

I'm as big as you keep in your heart 

And there I'll stay. I'll remain 

As you in me. There I'll be
