Round and round like a horse on a carousel
We go, will I catch up to love, I could never tell,
I know chasing after you is like a fairytale
But I feel like I'm glued on tight to this carousel
Come, come one come all, you must be this tall
To ride this ride, at the carnival
Oh, come take my hand and run through playland
So high, too high at the carnival
And it's all fun and games
Till somebody falls in love
But you already bought a ticket and there's no turning back now
Round and round like a horse on a carousel
We go, will I catch up to love?
I can never tell
I know chasing after you is like a fairytale
But I feel like I'm glued on tight to this carousel
This horse is too slow, we're always this close
Almost, almost we're a freakshow
Right right when I'm near, it's like you disappear
Where'd you go, is that Houdini or a freakshow
And it's all fun and games
Till somebody falls in love
But you already bought a ticket and there's no turning back now
Round and round like a horse on a carousel
We go, will I catch up to love?
I can never tell
I know chasing after you is like a fairytale
But I feel like I'm glued on tight to this carousel
Why did you steal my cotton candy heart?
You threw it in this damn coin slot
And now I'm stuck, I'm stuck
Riding, riding, riding
Round and round like a horse on a carousel
We go, will I catch up to love?
I can never tell I know chasing after you is like a fairytale
But I feel like I'm glued on tight to this carousel
