|
Sit and wait for the day |
|
Where your life might change |
|
And that day never comes |
|
This is rule number one |
|
All the changes must come from you |
|
Is the second rule |
|
Take a long way round |
|
See the sights, hear sounds |
|
Where you'll go, nobody knows |
|
Been this way |
|
Since the day |
|
I was born |
|
Far away And the walk |
|
In the rain |
|
Makes you feel |
|
Young again |
|
I assumed |
|
You would be my strength |
|
Oh, how wrong |
|
I was That's the wrong way round |
|
How you need me now |
|
The carrousel keeps turning still |
|
This one cried, this one smiled |
|
But we all felt alive |
|
Like a walk in the rain |
|
Made us feel young again |
|
With the crowd singing "all right now" |
|
As the rain came down |
|
It's a long way home |
|
But we're not alone |
|
Life's carrousel keeps turning still |
|
Life keeps turning around, and around |
|
We keep learning from things we have found |
|
Overground |
|
What a fool |
|
To believe |
|
I could help |
|
You to breathe |
|
Getting cold |
|
In the rain |
|
Makes us feel |
|
Young again |
|
If you go |
|
Take a long way round |
|
You'll be lost then found |
|
It's a long way home |
|
But you're not alone |
|
The carrousel bring you back again |
|
Winter comes |
|
We don't have a choice |
|
As we grow |
|
We will find a voice |
|
She looks over her shoulder |
|
The swimming pool freezes over |
|
We'll skate to the other side |
|
Full of life |
|
Still filled with pride |
