Walking Higher

Album: Heather Nova: Oyster Durasi: 4:12
[00:12.57]I carry you with me,
[00:17.09]A ghost inside
[00:20.64]And in these shattered arms,
[00:27.90]You're still alive.
[00:30.61]I carry you with me,
[00:38.79]A holy shrine
[00:44.11]And dogs and angels follow
[00:52.32]Right behind.
[00:57.70]Could I be walking higher,
[01:07.63]Could I be right beside her?
[01:19.45]The bones they buried,
[01:26.60]Will feed the trees
[01:31.12]But every word you ever spoke,
[01:37.52]Is still in me.
[01:39.35]Could I be walking higher,
[01:53.82]Could I be right beside her?
[02:07.36]And I will feel for you in the music,
[02:14.50]And I will send that river home.
[02:18.19]And I will cry for you sometimes,
[02:26.35]When the night is down.
[02:27.28]And I raise my head up to the mountains,
[02:34.49]Talk to the birds and I fly,
[02:43.45]'Cause the spirit lives on,
[02:48.84]When the body dies.
[02:52.54]And could I be walking higher,
[02:59.84]Could I be right beside her?
[03:16.94]Could I be walking higher,
[03:26.98]Could I be right beside her?
