carry on lyrics

I heard your footsteps this morning
You know it's hard to get by when you don't sleep at all

I heard your footsteps this morning
You know it's hard to get by when you don't sleep at all
I'm just trying to be honest when I say
My body's feeling tired and I've got to move on
But I hope and I pray that your legs will somehow find the strength

And they all carry on
They want nothing but to be better off
And I've hurt and I've aged
But I found it in my heart to believe you are home

Some nights I have this blurred vision
Where we dance in a dream to the songs that we love
Those songs have played for the lonely souls
Who are singing along when it wasn't enough
Just to hope and to pray that their bodies somehow find the strength

And they all carry on
They want nothing but to be better off
And I've hurt and I've aged
But I found it in my heart to believe

I've been waiting for good news since you left
Little piece of my heart's been pounding out of my chest
We're all waiting for good news, aren't we now?

And they all carry on
They want nothing but to be better off
And I've hurt and I've aged
But I found it in my heart to believe you are home

I've been waiting for good news since you left
Little piece of my heart's been pounding out of my chest
We're all waiting for good news, aren't we now?
