Ayers |
|
It catches fire at midnight |
|
It leaves the room for doubt |
|
But every thing's so well defined |
|
There's only one way out |
|
And all the girls are on tonight |
|
The colored wheels all spin |
|
You're more aware than ever before |
|
You need a prize to win |
|
And all the funfair's will have one |
|
That is the usual theme |
|
No secret Jack in this box |
|
To help the pain within |
|
Quiet country roads and trees |
|
Birds singing from a cage |
|
You understand you just lost one |
|
You step outside your rage |
|
And what's left to believe in |
|
The children in the lake? |
|
I didn't see them go under |
|
Let's try another take |
|
Pass me the bottle, baby |
|
One day you'll understand |
|
We almost make the same mistakes |
|
And hold each other's hands |
|
Take this particular shade of gray |
|
Just for a change I shout |
|
There's nothing in this fairground |
|
That couldn't be left out |
|
There isn't much left to show you |
|
Maybe the tunnel of love |
|
Who knows we'll be there forever |
|
Just like the stars above |
