Lyrics

[00:00.00] 作曲 : Joni Mitchell
[00:01.00] 作词 : Joni Mitchell
[00:10.01] Yesterday a child came out to wonder
[00:18.44] Caught a dragon fly inside a jar
[00:26.96] Fearful when the sky was full of thunder
[00:34.09] And tearful at the falling of a star
[00:42.59] And the seasons they go round and round
[00:46.81] And the painted ponies go up and down
[00:52.09] We're captive on the carousel of time
[00:59.96] We can't return we can only look behind from where we came
[01:07.02] And go round and round and round in the circle game
[01:16.00] Then the child moved ten times round the seasons
[01:24.07] Skated over ten clear frozen streams
[01:32.01] Words like when you're older must appease him
[01:39.78] And promises of someday make his dreams
[01:47.94] And the seasons they go round and round
[01:51.90] And the painted ponies go up and down
[01:57.55] We're captive on the carousel of time
[02:05.02] We can't return we can only look behind from where we came
[02:12.04] And go round and round and round in the circle game
[02:21.24] Six-teen springs and six-teen summers gone now
[02:29.03] Cart-wheels turn to car-wheels thou' the town
[02:35.89] And they tell him take you're time it won't be long now
[02:45.05] Till you drag your feet to slow the circles down
[02:52.95] And the seasons they go round and round
[02:57.06] And the painted ponies go up and down
[03:01.91] We're captive on the carousel of time
[03:10.07] We can't return we can only look behind from where we came
[03:16.99] And go round and round and round in the circle game
[03:25.06] So the years spin by and now the boy is twenty
[03:33.14] Though his dreams have lost some grandeur coming true
[03:41.83] There's be new dreams may be better dreams and plenty
[03:49.05] Before the last revolving year is through
[03:57.98] And the seasons they go round and round
[04:02.00] And the painted ponies go up and down
[04:06.99] We're captive on the carousel of time
[04:15.03] We can't return we can only look behind from where we came
[04:22.05] And go round and round and round in the circle game
[04:29.96] And go round and round and round in the circle game
[04:36.00] 。。。。。。。。。。
