Carry On Wayward Son

Carry on my wayward son

There'll be peace when you are done

Lay your weary head to rest

Don't you cry no more

Carry On Wayward Son - Various Artists

Once I rose above

The noise and confusion

Just to get a glimpse

Beyond this illusion

I was soaring ever higher

But I flew too high

Though my eyes could see

I still was a blind man

Though my mind could think

I still was a mad man

I hear the voices

When I'm dreaming

I can hear them say

Carry on my wayward son

There'll be peace

When you are done

Lay your weary head to rest

Don't you cry no more

Masquerading as

A man with a reason

My charade is the

Event of the season

And if I claim to

Be a wise man well

It surely means

That I don't know

On a stormy sea

Of moving emotion

Tossed about

I'm like a ship on the ocean

I set a course

For winds of fortune

But I hear the voices say

Carry on my wayward son

There'll be peace

When you are done

Lay your weary head to rest

Don't you cry no more

No

Carry on

You will always remember

Carry on

Nothing equals the splendor

Now your life's no longer empty

Surely heaven waits for you

Carry on my wayward son

There'll be peace when you are done

Lay your weary head to rest

Don't you cry

(don't you cry no more)
