Dad, We're Going To Carry It On

Dad, after all, we've strayed
And yes, we've been bad
We're thankful for your love
And for sending the Searchers
To give us a chance
We vow to do our best

After you're gone
Oh, Dad, it's gonna break my heart
The love you've shown to me
After reading your letters
The first thing I thought
Was: Dad, I don't want you to leave

And yes, we promise that we'll
Carry it on
At least, we'll try with all of our hearts
But before you go
We just want you to know
Oh, Dad, we're gonna carry it on

After you're gone
Oh, Dad, it's gonna break my heart
The love you've shown to me
After reading your letters
The first thing I thought
Was: Dad, I don't want you to leave

And yes, we promise that we'll
Carry it on
At least, we'll try with all of our hearts
But before you go
We just want you to know
Oh, Dad, we're gonna carry it on

And yes, we promise that we'll
Carry it on
At least, we'll try with all of our hearts
But before you go
We just want you to know
Oh, Dad, we're gonna carry it on

But before you go
We just want you to know
Oh, Dad, we're gonna carry it on
