Baggage from Eden's Embrace by Stefanie Potter

You’ve got baggage, you know it’s true
Weighed down with sticks and stone
that make you walk so slow
You try to hide the load inside
but it stabs me like a knife
You’ve got baggage
I do too

There’s no shame with me
We will carry our load together
on the way to the gate where we can

Leave
it with the Captain
and fly into the sun
We’ll be
the first to see
when blue skies come

As we walk, hand in hand
The gate is drawing close
Some stones turn to gold
and those sticks are catching fire
the ashes left behind
As we walk, hand in hand

There’s no shame with me
We will carry our load together
on the way to the gate where we can

Leave
it with the Captain
and fly into the sun
We’ll be
the first to see
when blue skies come

So leave
Leave it with the Captain
We’ll be
Be the first to see

And the pain makes our love all the sweeter
The gate makes the journey worth the pain

So we'll leave
it with the Captain
and fly into the sun
and we’ll be
the first to see
when blue skies come

Leave
leave it with the Captain
We’ll be
be the first to see
