Carry You Around - Ani DiFranco

how pleased can one

sun setting make you

if you humble yourself

to it?

how grateful can you

realy say that you are

just to be here and live

through it?

and when beauty asks a question

how often do you reply?

how often do you wonder

about life on the other side?

on the other side of sorrow

on the other side of rage

on the othe rside of ok

ok at all

in any way

imagine what loneliness

will drive someone to do

now multiply that times me

and multiply that times you

now imagine what it would take to make

this all happen again

and just when you think you’re gonna cry

multiply that times ten

you

are distracting me

from all other activities

and i know the fact of your presence

will dominate my memory

of this restaurant this table

this day and this town

cuz i carry you, baby

i carry you around
