Carry On
Fun. Jeff Bhasker Lyrics

Well I woke up to the sound of silence
I woke up to a quiet and empty space

And cries were cutting like knives in a fist fight
I could hear someone sobbing loudly

And I found you with a bottle of wine
I saw you drinking wine

Your head in the curtains
Your head was buried in the curtains

And heart like the Fourth of July
You were feeling excited and emotional like Independence Day

You swore and said
You promised and declared

"We are not
"We are not that great

We are not shining stars"
We are not the most outstanding or impressive people

This I know
I am aware of this

I never said we are
I didn't claim that we were

Though I've never been through hell like that
Even though I've never had a terrible experience like that

I've closed enough windows to know you can never look back
I've closed enough doors to realize that you can never return to the past

If you're lost and alone
If you're feeling confused and lonely

Or you're sinking like a stone
Or you're feeling depressed and hopeless

Carry on
Keep going and don't give up

May your past be the sound
Let the memories of your past be the motivation

Of your feet upon the ground
Of you walking towards a better future

So I met up with some friends at the edge of the night
So I hung out with some friends late into the night

At a bar off 75
At a bar on Highway 75

And we talked and talked about how our parents will die
We had a conversation about how our parents will eventually pass away

All our neighbours and wives
We discussed everyone we knew, including our neighbors and spouses

But I like to think I can cheat it all
But I believe I can manipulate everything

To make up for the times I've been cheated on
To make up for the times I've been betrayed and mistreated

And it's nice to know when I was left for dead
It's comforting to know that when I was abandoned and felt hopeless

I was found and now I don't roam these streets
I was rescued and now I don't wander around aimlessly

I am not the ghost you are to me
I am not the haunting memory or reminder you are to me

Whoa!
Wow!

My head is on fire but my legs are fine
I am very excited but I am physically okay

After all they are mine
Because they are, in fact, my own legs

Lay your clothes down on the floor
Put down your clothes on the floor

Close the door, hold the phone
Shut the door and hold the phone

Show me how no one's ever gonna stop us tonight
Demonstrate to me that no one will prevent us from having a great time tonight

'Cause here we are
Because we're here

We are shining stars
We are remarkable individuals

We are invincible
We are unbeatable

We are who we are
We are exactly who we are meant to be

On our darkest day
On the bleakest day of our lives

When we’re miles away
When we're far apart

Sun will come
Things will get better

We will find our way home
We will eventually find our way back to where we belong

Ooh
Oh

(No one's ever gonna stop us tonight)
(No one will put an end to our fun tonight)

(No one's ever, no one's ever gonna stop, no one's ever gonna stop us tonight)
(No one will ever be able to stop us tonight)

(No one's ever, no one's ever gonna stop
(No one will ever prevent us from having a good time

No one's ever gonna stop, no one's ever gonna stop us tonight)
No one will ever ruin this moment for us)
