Carry On My Wayward Son

Carry on my wayward son,
There'll be peace when you are gone
Lay your weary head to rest
Don't you cry no more
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 dreamin',

I can hear them say

Carry on my wayward son,
there'll be peace when you are gone
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,
it surely means that I don't know
On a storm 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 gone
Lay your weary head to rest
don't you cry no more
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 gone
Lay your weary head to rest
don't you cry
(don't you cry)
don't you cry
No mooore
