lyrics

(Chorus stanzas "Hope" by Emily Dickinson)

Carry me oh carry me oh carry me ohh carry me the Marysburgh Vortex is calling
Carry me oh carry me oh weary me oh wary me please let me be sheltered from trivial trappings

Hope is the thing with feathers
that perches in the soul
and sings the tune without the words
and never stops at all

Carry me oh carry me oh bury me oh bury me let sand dunes be blankets that calm and cool me
Emily oh Emily oh ferry me oh carry me
I met you when I was but fifteen - sailing

And sweetest in the gale is heard
and sore must be the storm
that could abash the little bird
that kept so many warm

so many...ahhhhh...

Carry me oh carry me oh Emily oh carry me
the Marysburgh Vortex is calling
Carry me oh carry me oh weary me oh ferry me
I'll wade through the doldrums I'll wade through once more

I've heard it in the chillest land
and on the strangest sea
yet never in extremity
it asked a crumb of me

Aaaaaaaaah...
