Bonnie McKee - A Voice That Carries Lyrics

I gotta get away from here
Where it's always cold
I want to warm my soul
Because I'm watching the embers die
Said I'm gonna pack my bags
Gonna leave today
I got no need to stay
Cause no one's gonna kiss me goodbye

But I don't need anybody to lead the way
I got a dream to follow
I don't need anybody to save today
Because I've got tomorrow
I don't need anybody to break my fall
Because I know that if my journey leaves me weary at all
I got a voice that carries
Carry me on up
Gonna carry me down to L.A.

Said it's been ten long years
Since I've seen the sun
I'm living on the run
And so I'm hanging my head in shame
But my mama said to speak my mind
So listen what I say
Cause there will come a day
When everybody's screaming my name

But I don't need anybody to lead the way
I got a dream to follow
I don't need anybody to save today
Because I've got tomorrow
I don't need anybody to break my fall
Because I know that if my journey leaves me weary at all
I got a voice that carries
Carry me on up
Gonna carry me down to L.A.

I got a voice that carries
Carry me down where the sun don't stop
I got a voice that carries
Carry me away from my pain, yeah
I got a voice that carries
Carry me down where the sand is hot
I got a voice that carries
That's the only thing that's keeping me sane

I got a voice
Can you hear it?
Callin' me up and away yeah
But I got a voice
Can you hear it?
Callin' me, callin' me, callin' me down to L.A.

Never had a place to go
Or a place to be, no
As long as I can breathe
I'll always have my getaway song

I don't need anybody to lead the way
I got a dream to follow
I don't need anybody to save today
Because I've got tomorrow
I don't need anybody to break my fall
Because I know that if my journey leaves me weary at all
I got a voice that carries
Carry me on up
Gonna carry me down to L.A.

I don't need anybody to lead the way
I got a dream to follow
I don't need anybody to save today
Because I've got tomorrow
I don't need anybody to break my fall
Because I know that if my journey leaves me weary at all
I got a voice that carries
Carry me on up
Gonna carry me down to L.A.

I got a voice that carries
I got a voice that carries
I got a voice that carries
Carry me down, carry me down, carry me down

I got a voice that carries
Yeah, yeah
I got a voice that carries
Yeah, yeah
I got a voice that carries
Yeah, yeah
I got a voice that carries
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
