Carry On
¶ 1 Leave a comment on verse 1 0 what keeps us strong is simple
¶ 2 Leave a comment on verse 2 0 the need to feel the same
¶ 3 Leave a comment on verse 3 0 but sadness overwhelms our souls
¶ 4 Leave a comment on verse 4 0 we search for those to blame
¶ 5 Leave a comment on verse 5 0 the sniffer dogs at stations
¶ 6 Leave a comment on verse 6 0 security on rooves
¶ 7 Leave a comment on verse 7 0 our awkward habits magnified
¶ 8 Leave a comment on verse 8 0 while cameras watch our moves
¶ 9 Leave a comment on verse 9 0 our rucksacks and our carriers
¶ 10 Leave a comment on verse 10 0 our crazy rushing lives
¶ 11 Leave a comment on verse 11 0 this cancer spreads in spite of all
¶ 12 Leave a comment on verse 12 0 with fear that cuts like knives
¶ 13 Leave a comment on verse 13 0 so used to searches at the grounds
¶ 14 Leave a comment on verse 14 0 no rattles flags or beer
¶ 15 Leave a comment on verse 15 0 the price of freedom grows and grows
¶ 16 Leave a comment on verse 16 0 this danger’s everywhere
¶ 17 Leave a comment on verse 17 0 last night I looked across these hills
¶ 18 Leave a comment on verse 18 0 the garden bathed in sun
¶ 19 Leave a comment on verse 19 0 we thought of those destroyed and gone
¶ 20 Leave a comment on verse 20 0 each precious to someone
¶ 21 Leave a comment on verse 21 0 a hundred miles from all I loved
¶ 22 Leave a comment on verse 22 0 my football and my team
¶ 23 Leave a comment on verse 23 0 my childhood spent on tubes and streets
¶ 24 Leave a comment on verse 24 0 my fifties London dream
¶ 25 Leave a comment on verse 25 0 all gone with innocence and time
¶ 26 Leave a comment on verse 26 0 all gone like smog and smoke
¶ 27 Leave a comment on verse 27 0 but still the sound from that great town
¶ 28 Leave a comment on verse 28 0 is one that beats with hope
¶ 29 Leave a comment on verse 29 0 I heard a country siren
¶ 30 Leave a comment on verse 30 0 perhaps some cow had strayed
¶ 31 Leave a comment on verse 31 0 and felt the gratitude of life
¶ 32 Leave a comment on verse 32 0 and watched the evening fade
¶ 33 Leave a comment on verse 33 0 there’s nothing we can do or say
¶ 34 Leave a comment on verse 34 0 to make this nightmare end
¶ 35 Leave a comment on verse 35 0 we know not when they’ll act or strike
¶ 36 Leave a comment on verse 36 0 at any time again
¶ 37 Leave a comment on verse 37 0 but like this heart that pounds within
¶ 38 Leave a comment on verse 38 0 we all must carry on
¶ 39 Leave a comment on verse 39 0 and while they tell us keep the faith
¶ 40 Leave a comment on verse 40 0 not so for those who’ve gone
¶ 41 Leave a comment on verse 41 0 what future now we wonder
¶ 42 Leave a comment on verse 42 0 this city town and home
¶ 43 Leave a comment on verse 43 0 we keep our spirits positive
¶ 44 Leave a comment on verse 44 0 the only way we’ve known
¶ 45 Leave a comment on verse 45 0 it seems so distant from in my youth
¶ 46 Leave a comment on verse 46 0 we’ve come so far today
¶ 47 Leave a comment on verse 47 0 those bombs our fathers dodged between
¶ 48 Leave a comment on verse 48 0 are still not far away
¶ 49 Leave a comment on verse 49 0 but we will carry on my friends
¶ 50 Leave a comment on verse 50 0 all strangers now entwined
¶ 51 Leave a comment on verse 51 0 united in our longing
¶ 52 Leave a comment on verse 52 0 for peace for all mankind
