In younger days I told myself
my life would be my own
And I leave the place
where the sunshine never shone
for my life's too short for waiting
when I see the rising sun
when I know again that I must carry on
carry on to till tomorrow
there's no reason to get back
carry on, carry on, carry on
Long shadows of the cloud's
annoying to the sky
Carry on till I find the rainbow's then
for my life's too short for waiting
when I see the rising sun
when I know again that I must carry on
carry on till tomorrow
there's no reason to get back
carry on, carry on, carry on
Drifting gone with the winds of freedom
live this stormy days
And we ride to tomorrow's golden wheels
for my life's too short for waiting
when I see the rising sun
when I know again that I must carry on
carry on till tomorrow
there's no reason to get back
carry on, carry on, carry on
And when the heavy journey's done
I rest my weary head
for the world in this colors will be mine
for my life's too short for waiting
when I see the setting sun
when I know again that I must carry on
carry on till tomorrow
there's no reason to get back
carry on, carry on, carry on
