VERSE 1

The days keep on turning

The living, the learning, the long goodbyes

That far destination

A horse that keeps chasing a lonely prize

I’m spinning in circles, get lost in the blur of the

Colors and crowds, the ups and the downs, oh

I’ve been trying to let go

Let the ride lift me up off the ground

CHORUS

And we go round and round

Riding a carousel

Lost in the light and sound

It’s only temporary, no way to tell

If we’re running out of time, if we are that’s fine

Just don’t make me ride by myself

So til it all slows down

Ride with me round and round

On this carousel

VERSE 2

Holding on tight through the shadows and light

We’re just passing by

Over and over, just when we get close

It falls out of sight

I’m spinning to music, get dizzy and lose

What I thought I had found

I’m up and I’m down oh

I’ve been trying to let go

Let the ride lift me up off the ground


[Chorus]

And we go round, and round

Riding a carousel

Lost in the light and sound

It's only temporary

No way to tell

If we're

Running out of time

If we are that's fine

Just don't make me ride by myself

Ride by myself

So 'till it all slows down

Ride with me round and round

Round this carousel

Oh, on this carousel

BRIDGE

Round and round and round and round and

Round and round and round and round and

Round we go, round and round we go, oh


[Chorus]

And we go round, and round

Riding a carousel

Lost in the light and sound

It's only temporary

No way to tell

If we're

Running out of time

If we are that's fine

Just don't make me ride by myself

Ride by myself

So 'till it all slows down

Ride with me round and round

Round this carousel

Oh, on this carousel
