Sarah Walk - The Circle Game

Текст песни

Yesterday a child came out to wander
And caught a dragonfly inside a jar
Fearful when the sky was full of thunder
And tearful at the falling of a star
Sixteen springs and sixteen summers gone now
Cartwheels turn to car wheels through the town
And they say take your time
Take your time it won’t be long now
Till you drag your feet to slow the circles down
And the seasons they go round and round
And the painted ponies go up and down
We’re captive on the carousel of time
We can’t return
We can only look behind from where we came
And go round and round and round
In the circle game
So the years spin by and now the girl is twenty
Though her dreams have lost some grandeur coming true
There’ll be new dreams, maybe better dreams and plenty
Before the last revolving year is through
And the seasons they go round and round
And the painted ponies go up and down
We’re captive on the carousel of time
We can’t return we can only look
Behind from where we came
And go round and round
And go round and round and round
In the circle game
And we go round and round
And we go round and round
And we go round and round
And we go round and round
And we go
