lyrics

Carry On

I hear a voice calling my name
I spin around am I going insane
Cause there's no one but me
I feel all alone in this place

Then I realize that I'm very lost
I don't recognize one single spot
Though I've been around here
I've lived around here all my life

Someone tell me what's going on
I'm so damned confused I used to be strong
But now I seem blind to the fact that I no longer can
Someone help me to climb this old hill
Cause all of a sudden I'm so bloody frail
I don't like the change but I know that I must carry on

I see a mirror at the end of a hall
Who is this person I just can't recall
I don't like what I see but there's no way
To change Father Time

Then I see the face of a very old friend
He tells me that he can no longer pretend
That he's not the same man
And he's sad that he's run out of time

Someone tell me what's going on
I'm so damned confused I used to be strong
But now I seem blind to the fact that I no longer can
Someone help me to climb this old hill
Cause all of a sudden I'm so bloody frail
I don't like the change but I know that I must carry on

If I could be anything I'd be a young man
One more time
Just to remember what I've left behind
If I could be anywhere
I'd be right there by your side
And that's where I'd stay till the end of all time

Tell me what's going on
I'm so damned confused I used to be strong
But now I seem blind to the fact that I no longer can
Someone help me to climb this old hill
Cause all of a sudden I'm so bloody frail
I don't like the change but I know that I must carry on

Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
Must carry on
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
Must carry on
Aah aah aah aah aah aah aah
Must carry on
Aah aah aah aah aah aah aah
Must carry on....fade
