   /Heather Nova   / This is about the intoxicating feeling that
  /Walking Higher /  hits you when you're in love.
 /Oyster         /   A lovely song, it goes in 3/4.
/_______________/


1st VERSE:
I carry you with me,
a ghost inside
And in these shattered arms
you're still alive.

I carry you with me,
a holy shrine
and dogs and angels follow
right behind.

CHORUS (same as first chorus)



BRIDGE:
And I will feel for you in the music.
And I will send that river home.
And I will cry for you sometimes
when the night is down.
And I raise my head up to the mountains,
talk to the birds and I fly
'cause the spirit lives on,
when the body dies
