Carry On (Live) Lyrics

If I saved up all the rocks you threw at me

I'd have myself a wall about ten feet high

With all them little rocks you sent at me

I'd build myself a bridge

And get on by

If you tied up all the loose ends I let fray

You'd have yourself a sturdy net to cast

And with them weathered fibers deftly laid

Well you could have any easy catch

Out driftin' past

And love, it ain't no easy task

I'd answer all your questions if you'd ask them

And love, it ain't no easy mark

Don't you leave me in the dark my dear

If we gathered up the burdens laid on us

Into a heaping mound of ugly dirt

We could sit upon the summit's crumbling crust

And revel in the view

For what it's worth

If we tried to count the ways we've done it wrong

Or tallied up our follies, rifts, and flaws

Well it truly wouldn't take us very long

From all the way til now

We've carried on

And love, it ain't no easy task

I'd answer all your questions if you'd ask them

And love, it ain't no easy mark

Don't you leave me in the dark my dear
