《The Circle Game(Album Version)》歌词

[00:00:01] Yesterday a child came out to wonder

[00:00:09] Caught a dragonfly inside a jar

[00:00:16] Fearful when the sky was full of thunder

[00:00:24] And tearful at the falling of a star

[00:00:32] Then the child moved ten times round the seasons

[00:00:40] Skated over ten clear frozen streams

[00:00:48] Words like when youre older must appease him

[00:00:55] And promises of someday make his dreams

[00:01:03] And the seasons they go round and round

[00:01:08] And the painted ponies go up and down

[00:01:12] Were captive on the carousel of time

[00:01:20] We cant return we can only look behind

[00:01:24] From where we came

[00:01:26] And go round and round and round

[00:01:30] In the circle game

[00:01:35] Sixteen springs and sixteen summers gone now

[00:01:43] Cartwheels turn to car wheels thru the town

[00:01:50] And they tell him

[00:01:52] Take your time it wont be long now

[00:01:58] Till you drag your feet to slow the circles down

[00:02:06] And the seasons they go round and round

[00:02:11] And the painted ponies go up and down

[00:02:15] Were captive on the carousel of time

[00:02:22] We cant return we can only look behind

[00:02:27] From where we came

[00:02:30] And go round and round and round

[00:02:33] In the circle game

[00:02:38] So the years spin by and now the boy is twenty

[00:02:46] Though his dreams have lost some grandeur coming true

[00:02:53] Therell be new dreams maybe better dreams and plenty

[00:03:01] Before the last revolving year is through

[00:03:09] And the seasons they go round and round

[00:03:14] And the painted ponies go up and down

[00:03:18] Were captive on the carousel of time

[00:03:26] We cant return we can only look behind

[00:03:29] From where we came

[00:03:34] And go round and round and round

[00:03:48] In the circle game
