I was blinded by the lights
I saw the reflecting in their eyes
It blinded me from the sea
Of everybody's smiles
And I was young and best
So I'd thought I'd test the night
Yeah I thought that we can leave before the lights fell down
I wasn't listening
So carry on young gentleman
I have done all that I can
I have done all that I'll stand for..
Carry on young gentleman
I have done all that I can
I have done all that I'll stand for..
We left after dark, the sun had fallen for the moon and all the moments race
It's going way too fast it's way too soon
So I sat alone
Just for a moment they came back and now I'm stuck right here
Reeling in the slack now from my previous nights

So carry on young gentleman
I have done all that I can
I have done all that I'll stand for..
Carry on young gentleman
I have done all that I can
I have done all that I'll stand for..

Deliver me now from everything we should not do..
It's so unpredictable
But still you know just what your gonna do
In even moments that fall flat
Something is different even though it's hard to mean that
I wasn't listening

So carry on young gentleman
I have done all that I can
I have done all that I'll stand for..
Carry on young gentleman
I have done all that I can
I have done all that I'll stand for..

I stand for something
I stand for something
I will stand for something yeah
So carry on young gentleman
I have done all that I can
I have done all that I'll stand for, yeah
