We stood in the moonlight and the river flowed
    C           D           G
And God walked through the garden
            C      D            G
A mist came falling down to the ground
  C                   D      G
I watched it all with no obligation 


G   C            D     G
Travellers on an olden road
             C              G        D
With all the baggage of our days and years
G                 C          D      G
We're life's carriers to the next unborn
         C
And I'll carry you
          D             G

             C           D          G
This is your mother, not somebody's dream

And all our lifetimes drifted through the trees
        C                D             G
To that place of moments where all was certain 


G   C            D     G
Travellers on an olden road

And I'll carry you
          D             G
