Verse 1 Round and round the painted sky, Tiny hands reaching high. Every turn felt endless then, Morning always came again. Verse 2 Seasons traded names with ease, Summer slipped through autumn leaves. While I chased another dawn, Half my yesterdays were gone. Chorus The carousel never learned to wait. It only knew to take. Somewhere between...not yet... and .....too late, A lifetime took its turn. Verse 3 Silver gathers where gold had shone, Still the music carries on. Faces fade, but echoes stay, Calling from yesterday. Final Chorus The carousel still turns the same, I'm the one who changed. Close your eyes... another year has gone. Look again....... and so have I... Outro When the music finally sleeps, [Whisper]Leave one horse for me. [Belt] I'll be somewhere in the laughter... Still circling......
