I remember a merry-go-round and a flying horse on it moves up and down lights flicker colors all over the fair You think you get on, but it's going nowhere and then I remember the day it was gone and I remember the day it stopped turning Then I didn't know what was going on and I see the flames and the wooden horse burning and all the colors were smoke in the weeping air and I started running, running for money and I have been running, running for life and I have been running, running for everything and I have been running, only to find All I ever needed was some love, Baby All I ever wanted was some love, Baby and now I think maybe, maybe I'll stay I think maybe, maybe I'll stay for a day I remember the tunes full of joy life in the hand of a child is a toy Patterns on brocade wind over the land and when life turns a fair, it all works, they pretend and even the world must keep spinning, we learn Moving in circles can be so amusing Who is afraid of the day it'll burn Feeling too dizzy can be so confusing Just keep on running around to feel fine again I had been running, running for money and I have been running, running for life and I have been running, running for everything and I have been running, only to find All I ever needed was some love, Baby All I ever wanted was some love, Baby and I have been coming along your way, Baby and I have been coming a long, long way, Baby and I have been running too long a way and now I think maybe, maybe I'll stay I think maybe, maybe I'll stay - for a day or two - or three - or maybe forever Maybe, maybe, maybe for eternity. |
