lyrics

I was saluted by the light outside
Where the loose leaves went floating by
As they fly, oh I wonder why
I can see the light but I cant see the sky

Why do I try to draw the lines but never find a time to cry?
Never mind
Never mind
Never mind

I'm going round and round on this merry go-round
Back and forth, to the north and then back down
Up through the hills, through the mountain and clouds
Out in the fields where we were not allowed
Chasing the light that we never be found

Let it down, don't let me down baby

I’m going up and down on the carousel
Where it goes, when it ends, I can't tell
I'm off and I'm lost, I'm drunk off your spell
I got caught with the cost of not knowing you well

We opened the doors from heaven to hell
Oh well
Oh well
