The Long Way Round |
Sit and wait for the day |
Where your life might change |
And that day never comes |
This is rule number one |
All the changes must come from you |
Is the second rule |
Take a long way round |
See the sights, hear sounds |
Where you’ll go, nobody knows |
Been this way |
Since the day |
I was born |
Far away |
And the walk |
In the rain |
Makes you feel |
Young again |
I assumed |
You would be my strength |
Oh, how wrong I was |
That’s the wrong way round |
How you need me now |
The carrousel keeps turning still |
This one cried, this one smiled |
But we all felt alive |
Like a walk in the rain |
Made us feel young again |
With the crowd singing «all right now» |
As the rain came down |
It’s a long way home |
But we’re not alone |
Life’s carrousel keeps turning still |
Life keeps turning around, and around |
We keep learning from things we have found |
Overground |
What a fool |
To believe |
I could help |
You to breathe |
Getting cold |
In the rain |
Makes us feel |
Young again |
If you go |
Take a long way round |
You’ll be lost then found |
It’s a long way home |
But you’re not alone |
The carrousel bring you back again |
Winter comes |
We don’t have a choice |
As we grow |
We will find a voice |
She looks over her shoulder |
The swimming pool freezes over |
We’ll skate to the other side |
Full of life |
Still filled with pride |
