You Are Not Alone - Patty Griffin (mp3)

I'll admit, the only interaction I've personally seen between Cadman and Beckett was, well, "Duet." But even then I thought she was good for him. She was filled with life, strong-willed, and self-sacrificing, qualities which I think would work very well in a relationship with Carson. He needs someone that vibrant to be with him after he loses another patient, someone that strong-willed who won't let him run himself ragged. "You Are Not Alone" symbolizes their relationship well, I think, because it shows some of the quieter moments in their relationship and the connection that is there even during a tragedy.

She sees him laying in the bed alone tonight
The only thing a touching him is a crack of light
Pieces of her hair are wrapped around and 'round his fingers
And he reaches for her side, for any sign of her that lingers

And she says you are not alone
Laying in the light
Put out the fire in your head
And lay with me tonight

One of them bullets went straight for the jugular vein
There were people running, a flash of light
Then everything changed
Nothing really matters in the end, you know
All the worries sever
Don't be afraid for me my friend, one day we all fall down forever

She says you are not alone
Laying in the light
Put out the fire in your head
And lay with me tonight

The wedding date was June just like any other bride
She loved him like no one before and it was good to be alive
But sometimes that can slip away as fast
As any fingers through your hands
So you let time forgive the past and go and make some other plans

You are not alone
Laying in the light
Put out the fire in your head
And lay with me tonight
You are not alone
Laying in the light
Put out the fire in your head
And lay with me tonight

When You Say Nothing At All - Alison Krauss (mp3)

Yes, this song is horribly, horribly romantic and gushy. But c'mon, it's Carson, people! You think he's not a romantic at heart? But again this is a reflection of quieter moments, when their connection speaks without words.

It’s amazing how you can speak right to my heart
Without saying a word you can light up the dark
Try as I may I could never explain
What I hear when you don’t say a thing

The smile on your face lets me know that you need me
There’s a truth in your eyes sayin’ you’ll never leave me
The touch of your hand says you’ll catch me if ever I fall
You say it best when you say nothing at all

All day long I can hear people talking out loud
But when you hold me near, you drown out the crowd
Old Mr. Webster could never define
What’s being said between your heart and mine

The smile on your face lets me know that you need me
There’s a truth in your eyes sayin’ you’ll never leave me
The touch of your hand says you’ll catch me if ever I fall
You say it best when you say nothing at all

The smile on your face lets me know that you need me
There’s a truth in your eyes sayin’ you’ll never leave me
The touch of your hand says you’ll catch me if ever I fall
You say it best when you say nothing at all
