On a Carousel

[Instrumental Intro]

[Verse 1]

Riding along on a carousel

Trying to catch up to you

Riding along on a carousel

Will I catch up to you?

Horses chasing 'cause they're racing

So near, yet so far

[Chorus]

On a carousel

On a carousel

[Verse 2]

Nearer, nearer by changing horses

Still so far away

People fighting for their places

Just get in my way

Soon you'll leave and then I'll lose you

Still, we're going round

[Chorus]

On a carousel

On a carousel

[Bridge]

'Round and 'round and 'round and round and

'Round and 'round and 'round and 'round with you

Up, down, up, down, up, down, too

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]

As she leaves, she drops the presents

That she won before

Pulling ducks out of the water

Got the highest score

Now's my chance and I must take it

A case of do-or-die

[Chorus]

On a carousel

On a carousel

[Bridge]

'Round and 'round and 'round and round and

'Round and 'round and 'round and 'round with you

Up, down, up, down, up, down, too

[Verse 4]

Riding along on a carousel

Trying to catch up to you

Riding along on a carousel

Will I catch up to you?

Now we take our ride together

No more chasing her

[Chorus/Outro]

On a carousel

On a carousel

On a carousel

On a carousel

On a carousel...
