Carry on wayward son

(Kerry Livgren) (Chorus) Once I rose above the noise and confusion Just to get a glimpse beyond the 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 (Chorus) Carry on my wayward son, For there'll be peace when you are done Lay your weary head to rest Now 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 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 Carry on, you will always remember Carry on, nothing equals the splendor Now your life's no longer empty Surely heaven waits for you (Chorus)
