Carrying Glass - Ryuichi Sakamoto

Walking past the places I don't wanna see And faceless strangers I don't wanna meet As I go, the night becomes surreal Carrying on for all eternity True change is nowhere to be found Carrying on, carrying on As I try to fight it I run away, but stay the same Light the fire, ignite it Distant voices screaming in the dark Approaching me as I embark Suddenly, faces facing me I can't believe, it's reality I guess it doesn't matter now Carrying on, carrying on As I try to fight it I run away, but stay the same Light the fire, ignite it And when it all comes back At least I know, I'm not alone And in my darkest days You are the light to guide me home

I'm carryin' a torch for you I'm carryin' a torch You know how much it costs To keep carryin' a torch Flame of love it burns so bright That is my desire Keep on liftin' me, liftin' me up Higher and higher You're the keeper of the flame And you burn so bright Baby why don't we re-connect Move into the light I've been going to and fro on this And I'm still carryin' a torch You must know how much it's worth When I'm carryin' a torch (alright) Baby you're the keeper of the flame And you burn so bright Why, why, why, why, why, why don't we re-connect And move on further, into the light I've been calling you on the phone 'Cause I'm carryin' a torch (yeah) I can do it all on my own 'Cause I'm carryin' a torch I'm carryin' a torch for you, baby I'm carryin' a torch You know how much it's worth Because I'm carryin' a torch (one more) I'm carryin' a torch for you, baby I'm carryin' a torch You know how much it's worth Because I'm carryin' a torch
