Merry Go Round feat. The Duhks

歌詞

Someone is tossing petals in the stream Somewhere someone is standing at the foothills of their dreams Someone got a paintbrush, is painting over doubt Someone opened up his eyes and saw the sun coming out Someone was captive and found the courage to get off Throw a boulder in the well, somewhere the rain has stopped Someone is finding the place where they belong Everyday is summer somewhere in the world And the summer boys are headed for the falls to kiss the girls With their impatient hands groping honey bees and curls They are filled with desire High in the hills there's a baby being born As forgiveness and peace wash over bruises and sores People bridging distance over nettles and thorns Chorus: Everyone aboard on the merry-go-round Some things will rise up as the others come down The devil don't dance, heaven won't shine It's a mighty thick haze, pretty thin line If the faucet is tightened up the love won't flow If the love isn't bright enough the corn won't grow If the night isn't dark enough the moon won't glow Rich man counting money, tired man counting sheep While the saved man counts his blessings, the hungry man his beans Millions o' people praying, raising up their eyes To what turns out to be the same god, the same sky We are slightly scared of death, a little bit afraid So we celebrate everything that we can think to celebrate We'll sing out loud to keep the hounds away (Chorus) Prisons will crumble and governments will fall It's the order of freedom to be preceded by walls The truth would be worthless if no one ever lied So we carry our shame in the interest of pride We have all these questions to make us go roam We've got all this distance to make us come home The sun burns, a child learns, the tide churns, the world turns As the sun burns, a child learns, the tide churns, the world turns (Chorus) As the sun burns, a child learns, the tide churns, the world turns As the sun burns, a child learns, the tide churns, the world turns As the sun burns, the world turns As the sun burns, a child learns, the tide churns, the world turns
