Melanie Martinez Lyric Book

🍼Carousel 🍼

Round and round like a horse on carousel, we go
Will I catch up to love?
I could never tell

I know
Chasing after you is like a fairy tale
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

Boy, come take my hand
And run through playland
So high, too high at the carnival

And it's all fun and games
Til somebody falls in love
But you've all ready bought a ticket
And there's no turn back now

Round and round like a horse on carousel, we go
Will I catch up to love?
I could never tell

I know
Chasing after you is like a fairy tale
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 freak show

Right, right when I'm near
It's like you disappear
Where'd you go?
Mr. Houdini, you're a freakshow.

And it's all fun and games
Til somebody falls in love
But you've already bought a ticket and there's turning back now

Round and round like a horse on carousel, we go
Will I catch up to love?
I could never tell

I know
Chasing after you is like a fairy tale
But I, feel like I'm glued on tight to this carousel

Why did you steal my Cotton Candy heart?
You threw in this damn coin slot
And now I'm stuck, I'm stuck
Riding, riding, riding

Round and round like a horse on carousel, we go
Will I catch up to love?
I could never tell

I know
Chasing after you is like a fairy tale
But I, feel like I'm glued on tight to this carousel
