[Verse 1] Trouble is her only friend and hes back again Makes her body older than it really is She says its high time she went away No ones got much to say in this town Trouble is the only way is down Down, down [Chorus] As strong as you were, tender you go Im watching you breathing for the last time A song for your heart, but when it is quiet I know what it means and Ill carry you home Ill carry you home [Verse 2] If she had wings she would fly away And another day God will give her some Trouble is the only way is down Down, down [Chorus] As strong as you were, tender you go Im watching you breathing for the last time A song for your heart, but when it is quiet I know what it means and Ill carry you home Ill carry you home [Bridge] And they were all born pretty in New York City tonight And someones little girl was taken from the world tonight Under the Stars and Stripes [Chorus] As strong as you were, tender you go Im watching you breathing for the last time A song for your heart, but when it is quiet I know what it means and Ill carry you home As strong as you were, tender you go Im watching you breathing for the last time A song for your heart, but when it is quiet I know what it means and Ill carry you home Ill carry you home
