Carry On Wayward Son - 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 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 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 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 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 No! Carry on, you will always remember Carry on, none can equal 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

"Magnum Opus" This foolish game, oh it's still the same The notes go dancin' off in the air And don't you believe it's true, The music is all for you It's really all we've got to share Cause Rockin' and Rollin', it's only Howlin' at the Moon. It's only howlin' at the Moon.

The empty page before me now, the pen is in my hand The words don't come so easy but I'm trying I'm searching for a melody or some forgotten line They can slip away from us so quickly Don't be unkind I'm not complaining I only feel it needs explaining And though I've said it all before I'll say it once again Everyone needs something to believe in So turn around, turn around it's on the other side Feel the sound, feel the sound, it's coming from deep inside It will fill you with emotion, if you let it be your guide So turn around, turn around, it's on the other side I'm waiting for the day to end another to begin Somehow I've forgotten what it stood for I look into your face and see the searching in your eyes I will be your servant till the end The music plays and for a moment I feel That all these days are so fulfilling And though I've said it all before I'll say it once again Everyone needs something to believe in So turn around, turn around it's on the other side Feel the sound, feel the sound, it's coming from deep inside It will fill you with emotion, if you let it be your guide So turn around, turn around, it's on the other side Desperation shows its ugly face in many ways No one can escape the times we live in The answers are so simple and we all know where to look But it's easier just to avoid the question And if I seem too inconclusive It's just because it's so elusive And though I've said it all before I'll say it once again Everyone needs something to believe in So turn around, turn around it's on the other side Feel the sound, feel the sound, it's coming from deep inside It will fill you with emotion, if you let it be your guide So turn around, turn around, it's on the other side
