Carousel Lyrics by The Duprees

Total Recall

1968

All we’re doing is going nowhere
Moving fast, never getting there
Like a carousel, carousel, carousel, carousel
All we’re doing is traveling fast
Never going nowhere and moving fast
Like a carousel, carousel, carousel
Like a carousel!

I thought we’d happen, for a long, long time (for a long, long time)
And be so happy without trying (trying)
It takes a lot of doing, if you want to keep love proving
You’ve got to work each day (you’ve got to work each day)
To keep love going on its way!

All we’re doing is going nowherе
Moving fast, never getting thеre
Like a carousel, carousel, carousel, carousel
All we’re doing is traveling fast
Never going nowhere and moving fast
Like a carousel, carousel, carousel
Like a carousel!

We keep on trying but we’ll never know (but we’ll never know)
About the things that we’ve been missing (missing)
You know that love’s a feeling; it’s such a groovy feeling
And if it passes by, (and if it passes by)
You’ll never get another try

Carousel, carousel, carousel, carousel, carousel!
Carousel, carousel, carousel, carousel, carousel!

All we’re doing is going nowhere
Moving fast, never getting there
Like a carousel, carousel, carousel, carousel
All we’re doing is traveling fast
Never going nowhere and moving fast
Like a carousel, carousel, carousel
Like a carousel!

Carousel, carousel, carousel, carousel, carousel!
Carousel, carousel, carousel, carousel, carousel!
Carousel, carousel, carousel, carousel, carousel!
Carousel, carousel, carousel, carousel, carousel!
