Life goes around in circles
But every couple of turns I find myself alone
And at these times, I see visions
Of a ring up ahead in the road
But I'm riding at full speed
On a great white wooden horse
To catch a ring thats never there

Carousel
I'm riding on a carousel
Carousel
A ride I've come to know all too well
I'm on a carousel

Time's a joker and brings back the same
Sets for the stage for our play-acting game
And at these times, I see visions
An endless déjà vu
with different sounding ends
And the jokes on me
I'm reaching for that ring
But I keep pulling it away

Carousel
I'm riding on a carousel
Carousel
A ride I've come to know all too well
I'm on a carousel
