(CHORUS)
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
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
(CHORUS)
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 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
(CHORUS) 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
No more
