《The Circle Game》歌词

[00:00:00] The Circle Game - Maureen Mcgovern

[00:00:12] Yesterday a child came out to wonder

[00:00:20] Caught a dragonfly inside a jar

[00:00:28] Fearful when the sky was full of thunder

[00:00:36] And tearful at the falling of a star

[00:00:44] And the seasons they go round and round

[00:00:48] And the painted ponies go up and dawn

[00:00:53] Were captive on the carousel of time

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

[00:01:05] From where we came

[00:01:10] And go round and round and round

[00:01:14] In the circle game

[00:01:20] Then the child moved ten times round the seasons

[00:01:28] Skated over ten clear frozen streams

[00:01:35] Words like when youre older must appease him

[00:01:44] And promises of someday make his dreams

[00:01:52] And the seasons they go round and round

[00:01:56] And the painted ponies go up and dawn

[00:01:59] Were captive on the carousel of time

[00:02:09] We cant return we con only look behind

[00:02:12] From where we came

[00:02:17] And go round and round and round

[00:02:20] In the circle game

[00:02:25] Sixteen springs and sixteen summers gone now

[00:02:33] Cartwheels turn to car wheels thru the town

[00:02:41] And they tell him

[00:02:42] Take your time it wont be long now

[00:02:48] Till you drag your feet to slow the circles down

[00:02:57] And the seasons they go round and round

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

[00:03:05] Were captive on the carousel of time

[00:03:13] We cant return we can only look behind

[00:03:18] From where we came

[00:03:22] And go round and round and round

[00:03:26] In the circle game

[00:03:36] So the years spin by and now the boy is twenty

[00:03:43] Though his dreams have lost some grandeur

[00:03:48] Coming true

[00:03:52] Therell be new dreams maybe better dreams and plenty

[00:03:57] Before the last revolving year is through

[00:04:07] And the seasons they go round and round

[00:04:12] And the painted ponies go up and down

[00:04:17] Were captive on the carousel of time

[00:04:25] We cant return we can only look behind

[00:04:29] From where we came

[00:04:36] And go round and round and round

[00:04:41] And go round and round and round

[00:04:46] Round and round and round

[00:04:52] In the circle game
