Carousel Lyrics

I would have loved to see you grow old, friend

I would have loved to know you 'till the end

I would have loved to see you smile again

I would have loved to watch you turn grey

I would have loved to have just one more day

But all I know is that you've gone away

But I swear that I can hear you say...

Don't worry, don't be sad
Think of the time we had

There is no future or past

And life is not meant to last

Life is crucial surgery

A shard of glass pulled from a heart that bleeds

And sometimes like a barroom fight

So keep throwing punches 'till you get it right

Life is like a carousel

It'll make you dizzy
It will spin like hell
Life is a clear blue stream

It's everything you mean
Yet nothing but a dream

Where things are not quite like they seem

And when you get it, that's when

You'll see me again

When you get it, that's when
You'll see me again
