Carry On Wayward Son Song Lyrics by Kansas
Carry on, my wayward son
There’ll be peace when you are done Lay your weary head to rest Don’t you cry no moreOnce 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 sayCarry on, my wayward son
There’ll be peace when you are done Lay your weary head to rest Don’t you cry no moreMasquerading 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 sayCarry on my wayward son
There’ll be peace when you are done Lay your weary head to rest Don’t you cry no more, noCarry on, you will always remember
Carry on, nothing equals the splendor Now your life’s no longer empty Surely heaven waits for youCarry 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 moreNo more
