The Circle Game şarkı sözleri

Yesterday a child came out to wonder Caught a dragonfly inside a jar Fearful when the sky was full of thunder And tearful at the falling of a star Chorus And the seasons they go round and round 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 were we came And go round and round and round in the circle game Then the child moved ten times round the seasons He skated over ten clear frozen streams Words like"when you´re older" must appease him And promises of someday make his dreams Ch Sixteen springs and sixteen summers gone now Cartwheels turn to car wheels through the town And they tell him "take your time it won´t be long now" Until you drag your feet just to slow the circles down Ch So the years spin by and now the boy is twenty Though his dreams have lost some grandeur coming true There´ll be new dreams maybe better dreams and plenty Before the last revolving year is through
