The Swords We Carried Mary Chapin Carpenter

The Swords We Carried - Mary Chapin Carpenter
[Verse 1]
Back when I believed in luck and stones and crosses
I'd put a coin found on the street towards cosmic losses
And passing graveyards in a car
Tracing every falling star
Luck was never very far from childhood causes

[Verse 2]
And pennies kissed with wishes arced into the fountains
And time was said to heal all pain and hope move mountains
And all that could befall a heart
Or break this perfect life apart
The swords we carried could not do a thing about them

[Chorus]
Away I am going
Away I am gone

[Verse 3]
Ghosts and angels are but memories and visions
And revenants are out there taking up positions
But back when I believed in you
You'd raise the sun and set the moon
How could I help but love you holy as religion?

[Chorus]
Away you are going
Away you are gone
