Under the orange sky at the edge of the night All the people in the town gonna carry me down Down into the river where I lay my head Oh, won't you take me down Lay my body in the water then I close my eyes They're gonna carry me home Gonna carry me home To your open arms, to your open arms They're gonna carry me home Gonna carry me home to your open arms To your open arms Now I can see through the river to the setting sun And when I fall asleep they're never gonna wake me up Oh, pretty girl I'm coming home to you I'm gonna see you soon Close my eyes, let the river come and sweep me up They're gonna carry me home Gonna carry me home to your open arms To your open arms They're gonna carry me home Gonna carry me home to your open arms Into your open arms All the people gonna carry me home to you All the people gonna carry me home to you All the people gonna carry me home to you All the people gonna carry me home to you.
