|
| [00:21.15] |
I sat there alone upon the ferris wheel |
| [00:27.34] |
A pastel colored carriage in the air |
| [00:33.63] |
I thought you'd leave me dangling for a little while |
| [00:39.91] |
A silly twist upon a childish dare |
| [00:46.10] |
Below I saw you whispering to another man |
| [00:52.48] |
Who held the lever that could bring me down |
| [00:58.77] |
He'd stop the world from turning at your command |
| [01:05.06] |
It's always something cruel that laughter drowns |
| [01:11.35] |
And I'm up while the dawn is breaking |
| [01:14.83] |
Even though my heart is aching |
| [01:17.93] |
I should be drinking a toast to absent friends |
| [01:26.21] |
Instead of these comedians |
| [01:48.86] |
I can hardly hear the music from the carousel |
| [01:55.25] |
The wind picks up, the carriage starts sway |
| [02:01.53] |
As one by one the lights go out, it's closing time |
| [02:07.81] |
I see you take his hand and walk away, walk away |
| [02:33.06] |
They say that you will always be the last to know |
| [02:39.26] |
They say that all that glitters is not gold |
| [02:45.53] |
It's not just that you're never coming back to me |
| [02:52.22] |
It's the bitter way that I was told |
| [02:57.80] |
And I'm up while the dawn is breaking |
| [03:01.59] |
Even though my heart is aching |
| [03:04.79] |
I should be drinking a toast to absent friends |
| [03:13.07] |
Instead of these comedians |
