lyrics

Once upon a
Younger time yours
Was the first hand
Held in mine, oh
By our house
Behind the shed
Our lips met
So innocent

Ran in with
Cheeks ablaze, straight
To my room
Didn’t wanna face anyone
Had a secret

Underneath my bed
At the back
That’s where
I carved your name
I carved your name
Carved your name

Many years and
We had spread
Through the world
Bound only by the thread
Of memory

Saw your ma one
Summer back said
You were married and
Livin’ in Fort Mac
Settled down

In a photo she had
Of you two
In the sand
You had carved your name
You carved your name
Carved your name

Heard the news
Through a friend there was
No pain
Near the end, oh
Wish I had one
Last chance to
Hold your hand
Share a laugh
My first kiss

When I was home
Found the plot
And the stone
Where they had carved your name
They carved your name
Carved your name
They carved your name
Carved your name
They Carved
Your name
