Carousels twirl all around exited youth. I do not mind at all. We're tonight in a world full of thrills - it can (come) carry me up, far above it all. It's a long way down from here to the sound. 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? Well the years they pass by slow don't they? It's a long way down from here to the sound. Watch the faces go 'round to the stars then the ground
