Lyrics

Wings To Carry Me Home
Roy Hurd

I close my eyes when I get lonesome
I can hear the wind in the mountain pines
The river sings like a tender woman
A song to heal this heart of mine

There’s an old dirt road that knows my footprints
In a little town that knows me best
The moss grows soft and green in the birches
Where I lay to take my rest

(Chorus)
These tears that fall are not for sorrow
They just show I’ve been gone too long
These precious things are more than memories
They are wings to carry me home

So I‘ll ride those wings whenever I get lonesome
When my soul is weary and worn
I will always go where my dreams take me
But I’ll never forget where those dreams were born

These tears that fall are not for sorrow
They just show I’ve been gone too long
These precious things are more than memories
They are wings to carry me home
