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 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 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 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 my wayward son There'll be peace when you are done I once 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 It surely means that I don't know I'm a sea of moving emotion Tossed about I'm like a ship on the ocean A sailor caught in four 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 Why don't you try and understand What I've been through And what I've learned And when you are done Carry on my wayward son There'll be peace when you are done Lay your weary head to rest ... Carry on You will always remember Carry on That you're equal to slander 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 Carry on ...
