Yesterday a child came out to wonder |
[00:18.440] |
Caught a dragon fly inside a jar |
[00:26.960] |
Fearful when the sky was full of thunder |
[00:34.90] |
And tearful at the falling of a star |
[00:42.590] |
And the seasons they go round and round |
[00:46.810] |
And the painted ponies go up and down |
[00:52.90] |
We're captive on the carousel of time |
[00:59.960] |
We can't return we can only look behind from where we came |
[01:07.20] |
And go round and round and round in the circle game |
[01:16.0] |
Then the child moved ten times round the seasons |
[01:24.70] |
Skated over ten clear frozen streams |
[01:32.9] |
Words like when you're older must appease him |
[01:39.780] |
And promises of someday make his dreams |
[01:47.940] |
And the seasons they go round and round |
[01:51.900] |
And the painted ponies go up and down |
[01:57.550] |
We're captive on the carousel of time |
[02:05.20] |
We can't return we can only look behind from where we came |
[02:12.40] |
And go round and round and round in the circle game |
[02:21.240] |
Six-teen springs and six-teen summers gone now |
[02:29.30] |
Cart-wheels turn to car-wheels thou' the town |
[02:35.890] |
And they tell him take you're time it won't be long now |
[02:45.50] |
Till you drag your feet to slow the circles down |
[02:52.950] |
And the seasons they go round and round |
[02:57.60] |
And the painted ponies go up and down |
[03:01.910] |
We're captive on the carousel of time |
[03:10.70] |
We can't return we can only look behind from where we came |
[03:16.990] |
And go round and round and round in the circle game |
[03:25.60] |
So the years spin by and now the boy is twenty |
[03:33.140] |
Though his dreams have lost some grandeur coming true |
[03:41.829] |
There's be new dreams may be better dreams and plenty |
[03:49.50] |
Before the last revolving year is through |
[03:57.980] |
And the seasons they go round and round |
[04:02.0] |
And the painted ponies go up and down |
[04:06.990] |
We're captive on the carousel of time |
[04:15.30] |
We can't return we can only look behind from where we came |
[04:22.50] |
And go round and round and round in the circle game |
[04:29.960] |
And go round and round and round in the circle game |
