On a Carousel

No more chasing her
So near yet so far
On a carousel, on a carousel
People fighting for their places just get in my way
Now we take our ride together
On a carousel, on a carousel

Still we're going round
Nearer and nearer by changing horses, still so far away
Riding along on a carousel, trying to catch up to you
Pulling ducks out of the water, got the highest score
Riding along on a carousel, will I catch up to you?
Round and round and round and round with you
Soon you'll leave and then I'll lose you
Now's my chance and I must take it

As she leaves, she drops the presents that she won before
On a carousel, on a carousel
Round and round and round and round
Up, down, up, down, up, down, too

A case of do or die
Up, down, up, down, up, down, too
Horses chasing 'cause they're racing
Round and round and round and round
On a carousel, on a carousel
Round and round and round and round with you
