Carrying Cathy

Her window was hung like a painting
 She worried it might come to life
 She stared for hours
 So obsessed was I and self-absorbed that I
 Didn't see that she was
 Crying
 There was always someone carrying
 There was always someone carrying
 Always someone's carrying Cathy
 ♪
 There were times when I'd find myself saying
 That, "friends, you don't understand"
 And she's different when it's just me and her, and I
 Closed the door and I tried to hang on and she
 Sank into the dark
 I was over my head
 There was always someone carrying
 There was always someone carrying
 Always someone's carrying Cathy
 ♪
 We gave you everything
 You could have been anything
 We gave you everything
 You could have done anything
 But to imagine a fall
 With no one at all to catch you
 There'd always been someone
 ♪
 Then, one night she climbed into the picture frame
 Out in the frozen air
 And out of sight
 Woke up sad from this dream I've been having
 The last couple nights or so
 ♪
 With her father and brothers we're all at the funeral
 Carrying a box through the rain
 Then, somebody says that, "it's always been this way"
 Always someone's carrying
 There was always someone carrying
 Always someone's carrying, Cathy
