Carry On

Written by Gary Noland                                                                               

Gone are the days that last forever/ Gone are the nights that lingered on and on/ Gone are the things we did together/ All we do is carry on/We toiled hard in our labors/ To buy us things to show the neighbors/ But after everything has been said and done/ All we do is carry on// There’s got to be something better than this/ There’s got to be something that we missed along the way/ There’s got to be more to life than living than dying/ There’s got to be more to life than what we’ve made/ The years have passed by so quickly /I turned around and they were gone/ And time sure hasn’t missed me/ The lines on my face are clearly drawn/ The things we thought were important/ Were just holes in the road/ And though there’s quite an assortment/ I just learned to let them go// There’s got to be something better than this/ There’s got to be something that we missed along the way/ There’s got to be more to life than living than dying/ There’s got to be more to life than what we’ve made//
