Carry on my wayward son

{refrain}
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

{refrain}

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

{refrain}
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
