houston bernard – carry that torch lyrics
[verse 1]
you hate the sin but love the sinner
go to work, you say, “don’t be late for dinner”
my callused hands from that factory
truck won’t start, d+mn thing needs battery
[chorus]
i meant every word i said that day, the day i said i do
i’m gonna lay my head down so i can wake up and carry that torch for you
[verse 2]
i got a bag of nails and a ball peen hammer
gonna build a house where we can live forever
got an aching back, so i reach for a whiskey
but just enough so the man upstairs still loves me
[chorus]
i meant every word i said that day the day i said i do
i’m gonna lay my head down so i can wake up and carry that torch for you
[bridge]
years, they have come and they have gone
even tears can’t drown the flame that burns on
[verse 3]
when i found you, i grabbed a ladder
climbed up the rungs where all the angels gather
so i think i’ll cut the grass this coming satry
if i play my cards right, maybe i’ll get lucky
[chorus]
i meant every word i said that day the day i said i do
i’m gonna lay my head down so i can wake up and carry that torch for you
the morning comes faster now every day, still, i got something to prove
i better lay my head down so i can wake up and carry that torch for you
