SONG LYRICS

Precious Cargo

I’ll carry you home
Across the blind and angry skies
Precious cargo
I’ll carry you home

I’ll carry you home
Through the raging Jealous sea
Precious cargo
I’ll carry you home

When the final bell has rung
The trumpets sound is done and
The battles song is sung.
And though you were so young
I’ll carry you home, Precious Cargo

Hold fast to my heart
Where we’ll never part
The rage is all gone
Loves shadows linger on
We’ll go gently
Just gently

We’ll carry you home
Across the blind and angry skies
We’ll carry you home
Precious cargo

We’ll carry you home
Through the raging jealous sea
We’ll carry you home
Precious cargo
Precious cargo
I’ll carry you home.

Hold fast to my heart
Where we’ll never part
The rage is all gone
Loves shadows linger on
We’ll go gently
Just gently

Precious cargo
Precious cargo
Precious cargo
Precious cargo

I’ll carry you home.
