Up the drive, ‘round a corner | |
Stand atop of the front porch staring | |
At the swing that used to hold | |
Your end of the day thoughts | |
There’s the old cherry trees and the neighbor who knows | |
Every grandchild’s name | |
Even sewed them some clothes for Christmas | |
You remember that Christmas | |
What can we carry, what will stay with us | |
What'll shine like gold when the story's told | |
Some things will tarry, some will return to dust | |
There are things we can and things we cannot keep | |
Well, I was young and he was in high school | |
In the band he played all the marches | |
Circle girls, boys and their solos | |
Dancing our hearts like an auction | |
We’re for sale and we’re cheap and we’ll sing you a jingle | |
Oh “heart” seems to be the wrong word for a soul | |
It’s crazy how we try to find solace | |
What can we carry, what will stay with us | |
What'll shine like gold when the story's told | |
Some things will tarry, some will return to dust | |
There are things we can and things we can't | |
There are things we can and things we can't | |
Innocence like a bottle spun | |
Sacred stones in careless hands | |
Building up our cityscape | |
We write our names on a plot of land | |
Oh, where will we go, and who will we be | |
And what, if anything, can we carry? | |
What'll shine like gold when the story's told | |
Some things will tarry, some will turn to dust | |
There are things we can and things we can't | |
What can we carry, what will stay with us | |
What'll shine like gold when the story's told | |
Some things will tarry, some will return to dust | |
There are things we can and things we can't | |
There are things we can and things we can't | |
There are things we can and things we cannot keep |
Up the drive, ' round a corner | |
Stand atop of the front porch staring | |
At the swing that used to hold | |
Your end of the day thoughts | |
There' s the old cherry trees and the neighbor who knows | |
Every grandchild' s name | |
Even sewed them some clothes for Christmas | |
You remember that Christmas | |
What can we carry, what will stay with us | |
What' ll shine like gold when the story' s told | |
Some things will tarry, some will return to dust | |
There are things we can and things we cannot keep | |

What' ll shine like gold when the story' s told | |
Some things will tarry, some will return to dust | |
There are things we can and things we can' t | |
There are things we can and things we can' t | |
