Yesterday a child came out to wonder |
[00:16.98] |
Caught a dragon fly inside a jar |
[00:23.95] |
Fearful when the sky was full of thunder |
[00:31.73] |
And tearful at the falling of a star |
[00:38.32] |
And the seasons they go round and round |
[00:43.20] |
And the painted ponies go up and down |
[00:47.93] |
We're captive on the carousel of time |
[00:53.99] |
We can't return we can only look behind from where we came |
[01:00.96] |
And go round and round and round in the circle game |
[01:09.79] |
Then the child moved ten times round the seasons |
[01:21.50] |
Skated over ten clear frozen streams |
[01:28.28] |
Words like when you're older must appease him |
[01:35.94] |
And promises of someday make his dreams |
[01:42.45] |
And the seasons they go round and round |
[01:47.63] |
And the painted ponies go up and down |
[01:52.29] |
We're captive on the carousel of time |
[01:57.80] |
We can't return we can only look behind from where we came |
[02:05.70] |
And go round and round and round in the circle game |
[02:14.38] |
Sixteen springs and sixteen summers gone now |
[02:25.85] |
Cartwheels last turn to car wheels through the town |
[02:33.00] |
And they tell him take your time it usn't be long now |
[02:40.38] |
Till you drag your feet to slow the circle down |
[02:47.04] |
And the season they go round and round |
[02:52.45] |
And the painted ponies go up and down |
[02:57.07] |
We're captive on the carousel of time |
[03:01.84] |
We can't return we can only look behind from where we came |
[03:10.71] |
And go round and round and round in the circle game |
[03:18.22] |
So the year spin by and now the boy is twenty |
[03:26.25] |
Though his dreams have lost some grander coming true |
[03:32.91] |
There's be new dreams maybe better dreams and plenty |
[03:41.21] |
Before the last revolving year is through |
[03:47.98] |
And the seasons they go round and round |
[03:52.99] |
And the painted ponies go up and down |
[03:57.47] |
We're captive on the carousel of time |
[04:03.14] |
We can't return we can only look behind from where we came |
[04:10.81] |
And go round and round and round in the circle game |
[04:18.23] |
And go round and round and round in the circle game |
[04:27.89] |
