The Comedians |
| I sat there alone upon the ferris wheel |
| A pastel-colored carriage in the air |
| I thought you’d leave me dangling for a little while |
| A silly twist upon a childish dare |
| Below I saw you whisper to another man |
| Who held the lever that could bring me down |
| He stopped the world from turning at your command |
| It’s always something cruel when left to drown |
| Chorus |
| I can hardly hear the music from the carousel |
| The wind picks up, the carriage starts to sway |
| And one by one the lights go out, it’s closing time |
| I see you take his hand and walk away |
| Walk away |
| They say that you are always the last to know |
| They say that all that glitters is not gold |
| It’s not just that you’re never coming back to me It’s the bitter way that I was told. |
| Chorus |
