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 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 [Ending 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
