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
