Lyrics: Orange Oyster
Music: Orange Oyster
It is a simple
Maybe a few unforgettable melodies
That sends her down a spiral
Re-living through these long-buried memories
Glimmers of regret and despair
Reaching out from darkness
They pull her to the deep
With a lullaby-a-by a-putting her to sleep
Take one step forward then two steps right
Spinning on and dancing all alone in the night
Waiting to find that one speck of light
She still can’t move on
From that dream that’s long gone, so
Round around and, round around and
Round around she goes and
Round around and, round until her gears grind to a stand
An abandoned carousel dreams on in a wasteland
Round around and, round around and
on she goes until
A nothing special
Yet oh-so-very-special moment in a faraway past
Lights up this dull and lonely world she keeps replaying
She reaches out her hand
But it crumbles down before her eyes onto the ground
Take one step forward then two steps right
Spinning on and on ‘til she is out of her mind
The abandoned carousel lost in her dreamland
Round around and, round around and
Round around unto time’s end
(Round around and-
She goes and-
Round until her time runs out on sand
The abandoned carousel spins on in her dreamland
Round around unto time’s end)
