Carry on lyrics

Whatever the words that you hear,

somehow the meaning is clear,

we're all on the same ship together, moving on.

From the first time that life could be heard

to the last sounds of men on this earth

the question is always the same:

“Where are we going, where are we going?”

Oh, carry on, carry on,

there's a silver light beside you.

Take the hand that's there to guide you

through this night to where we came from.

Carry on, carry on,

when the autumn leaves are falling

and you hear the voices calling you away,

then do not fear, you'll carry on...

Love is the daughter of life,

comfort to trouble and strife,

she's always beside you

to help you carry on.

Oh, they say that the stars in the sky

are the souls of the people who died.

Will we meet them again

when we reach our destination?

Sratseht rofesruo cates,

Nwonknu no it anitsed,

Dlroweht gnillacsi esrevinu eht,

Ecalp gnitser lanif dnatsal rehs-drawot,

Oh, carry on, carry on,

there's a silver light beside you.

Take the hand that's there to guide you

through this night to where we came from.

Carry on, carry on,

when the autumn leaves are falling

and you hear the voices calling you away,

then do not fear, you'll carry on…

Carry on, carry on,

carry on, oh, carry on...
