Carousels twirl all around excited youth
I do not mind at all
We're tonight in a world full of thrills, can carry me up
Far above it all

It's a long way down from here to the sound
Oh, watch the faces go 'round
To the stars then the ground

Ferris wheels carried us away not so long ago
Times I've betrayed
Where would we be now if I had taken your hand?
the years have passed us by slow

It's a long way down from here to the sound
Oh, watch the faces go 'round
To the stars then the ground
