[Verse 1] You found me by the ticket stand With a paper cup in your hand Sticky cotton on your sleeve And a grin that made me believe [Verse 2] The paint was peeling off the gate Your shoes were scuffed, we stayed out late You said, "Come on, one more spin" Like the whole world fit right in [Pre-Chorus] And the crowd went thin The sky went pink You leaned close in Before I could think [Chorus] Ferris wheel night Hold on tight Ferris wheel night Don’t let go yet Ferris wheel night Spinning slow Ferris wheel night I don’t wanna go [Verse 3] We rode above the frying oil Above the shout and twirling foil Your laugh cut through the metal frame And made the whole thing feel like home [Pre-Chorus] And the lights went soft The music blurred You said my name Like it was a word [Chorus] Ferris wheel night Hold on tight Ferris wheel night Don’t let go yet Ferris wheel night Spinning slow Ferris wheel night I don’t wanna go [Bridge] If the gate swings shut If the music dies I’ll keep that round Right in my mind Your hand in mine The county fair glow One more slow turn Then back we go [Chorus] Ferris wheel night Hold on tight Ferris wheel night Don’t let go yet Ferris wheel night Spinning slow Ferris wheel night I don’t wanna go
