[00:21.47] | Yesterday a child came out to wonder |
[00:31.34] | Caught a dragonfly inside a jar |
[00:40.75] | Fearful when the sky was full of thunder |
[00:50.99] | And tearful at the falling of a star |
[00:58.56] | And the seasons, they go round and round |
[01:04.54] | And the painted ponies go up and down |
[01:09.42] | Were captive on the carousel of time |
[01:19.19] | We can't return we con only look |
[01:23.13] | Behind from where we came |
[01:27.27] | And go round and round and round in the circle game |
[01:40.55] | |
[01:40.56] | Then the child moved ten times round the seasons |
[01:49.42] | Skated over ten clear frozen streams |
[01:58.79] | Words like, when you're older, must appease him |
[02:08.96] | And promises of someday make his dreams |
[02:18.38] | Sixteen springs and sixteen summers gone now |
[02:27.87] | Cartwheels turn to car wheels thru the town |
[02:37.37] | And they tell him, take your time, it won't be long now |
[02:47.42] | Till you drag your feet to slow the circles down |
[02:56.04] | And the seasons, they go round and round |
[03:01.84] | And the painted ponies go up and down |
[03:06.96] | Were captive on the carousel of time |
[03:16.01] | We can't return we con only look |
[03:20.21] | BehindFrom where we came |
[03:24.42] | And go round and round and round in the circle game |
[03:43.34] | |
[03:43.35] | So the years spin by and now the boy is twenty |
[03:53.13] | Though his dreams have lost some grandeur coming true |
[04:02.52] | There'll be new dreams, maybe better dreams and plenty |
[04:13.13] | Before the last revolving year is through |
[04:21.21] | And the seasons, they go round and round |
[04:27.07] | And the painted ponies go up and down |
[04:32.01] | Were captive on the carousel of time |
[04:41.24] | We can't return we con only look |
[04:45.45] | BehindFrom where we came |
[04:49.09] | And go round and round and round in the circle game…… |
