Carousel Lyrics by Cat Ridgeway

On A Windy Day

2012

It is raining buckets and I can't see a single thing
No, I just wanna get out of here and head out to the west
Where life's not a contest
This hat shields my head from the ice in its freest form
Still I am getting soaked to the bone watching a blue blur so
Circular

Carousel, keep turning round
Keep turning round and turning round
Don't wanna fall off my high horse
And kiss the ground, no, not now
Carousel, keep turning round
Keep turning round and turning round
Don't wanna fall off my high horse
And kiss the ground, no, not now

They say when your heart catches fire smoke gets in your eyes
Yes, smoke keeps rising on up, it renders your body blind
All it ever did for me was make me cry

Carousel, keep turning round
Keep turning round and turning round
Don't wanna fall off my high horse
And kiss the ground, no, not now
Carousel, keep turning round
Keep turning round and turning round
Don't wanna fall off my high horse
And kiss the ground, no, not now

Look at all these crazy lights, the rain is gonna wash them out
Ruined forever, still spinning together
Look at all those old horses, beaten up and all worn down
Perfect to moist eyes, the ones with no shame in crying
Like mine

Carousel, keep turning round
Keep turning round and turning round
Don't wanna fall off my high horse
And kiss the ground, no, not now
Carousel, keep turning round
Keep turning round and turning round
Don't wanna fall off my high horse
And kiss the ground, no, not now
