A Voice that Carries Lyrics

I gotta get away from here,
where it's always cold
I wanna warm my sould
because I'm watchin' the embers die
said I'm gunna pack my bags
Gonna leave today
I got no need to stay
Cause no one's gonna kiss me goodbye

Chorus
But I don't need anybody to lead the way
I got a dream to follow
I dont 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 livin' on the run
and So I'm hangin' my head in shame
but my Mama said to speaking mind
So listen what I say
Cause there will come a day
When everybody's screaming my name

Chorus

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
That's the only thing that's keeping me sane
but 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

Chorus

Cover art for A Voice that Carries lyrics by Bonnie Mckee

Based on what I know about Bonnie being from the Seattle area, this song is about her quest to move to California and start her music career. I haven't seen the sun in what feels like ten years either living here!
