Story Behind The Song

Written to express absolute love and loyalty between one person and another. Song has broader meaning, too - the American Humane Association loves the song, and Shara Strand, and has partnered with her (Shara and Lyricist, Mike Greenly, are sharing royalties with AHA ... since the feeling of love/loyalty also extends from people to animals in need, as well as to children in need, whom ASAP also rescues/helps.)

Lyrics

I WILL CARRY YOU

Verse1: I know that life isn't fair
And there's a lot you gotta handle
But baby I really care
It hurts to see you this way

Always remember
That you've got me
And I'll be there for you

Chorus: Yes I will carry you, when your legs are weary
I will lift you up when the water's high
I will hold you close when the wind is howling
When the road is long, I will carry you home

Verse 2: So now you know that I'm here
You know that I am in your corner
And I will always be near
Nothing can keep me away

It doesn't matter
Where or when
Cause baby I'll be there

Chorus: Yes I will carry you, when your legs are weary
I will lift you up when the water's high
I will hold you close when the wind is howling
When the road is long, I will carry you home

Don't be surprised when you realize
I am always on your side

Chorus: I will carry you, when your legs are weary
I will lift you up when the water's high
I will hold you close when the wind is howling
When the road is long, I will carry you home

You are not alone
I will carry you home
