Letra de Carousel

Pretty Elaina My fair lady She walked the high wire back in the 80's Feathers and sequins She shined like a chandelier Hanging from the top tent rafters Till the spotlight disappeared Harlan Giovanni What a sight to see The way he earned her trust was on a 20-foot trapeze She fell so hard because he always let her fly Till he left her heart suspended In a cotton candy sky She still don't know why Every show must end Every circus leaves town You don't know the magic's gone Until the lights go down Now she's back in Nacogdoches And I hear she's doing well She only misses Harlan when she hears a carousel Pretty Elaina Made herself a nest Her sequins and her secrets Buried in her cedar chest No one around here knows about her other life Johnny Davis went and made her a mama and a wife And maybe that's alright 'Cause every show must end Every circus leaves town You don't know the magic's gone Until the lights go down Now she's back in Nacogdoches And I hear she's doing well She only misses Harlan when she hears a carousel Smith County Fair Mid-September She walks the midway And smiles when she remembers Every show must end Every circus leaves town I didn't know the magic left Till all the lights went down Now I'm back in Nacogdoches And I swear I'm doing well I only miss my Harlan when I hear a carousel I only miss my Harlan when I hear a carousel
