|
Here we go again, around and around. |
|
Oh, it's a merry ride 'til you're back on the ground. |
|
You dizzy up the child 'til the tickets are gone, |
|
And it's time for the carnival to be moving on. |
|
It carries you up. |
|
Oh, it makes you feel alive. |
|
It makes you laugh. |
|
It makes you cry. |
|
We fold the tents. |
|
We take the carousel apart and roll away. |
|
We roll away. |
|
The sooner you can learn it never lasts, the more you'll enjoy the carnival. |
|
Don't hold you're breath. |
|
Don't close your eyes. |
|
Let go of the handlebars, so your fingers can fly. |
|
Seize the night and the autumn wind, 'til we close the house of fun and leave town again. |
|
Don't be afraid to be so easily amused. |
|
It's a thrill we all could use. |
|
Just like love, it wears a candy apple coat that melts away. |
|
We melt away. |
|
And the sooner you can learn it never lasts, the more you'll enjoy the carnival. |
|
Listen for the calliope. |
|
Keep lookout for the clowns, |
|
Be the first in line, the last to leave |
|
When we come back around. |
|
It carries you up. |
|
Oh, it makes you feel alive. |
|
It makes you laugh. |
|
It makes you cry. |
|
Just like love, it wears a candy apple coat that melts away. |
|
We melt away. |
|
And it's over in the twinkling of an eye, so enjoy the carnival. |
|
Enjoy the carnival. |
