lyrics

CAROUSEL, TURN MY LIFE AROUND
SPIN YOUR WURLITZER MUSIC AS IT
FILLS THE PARK ON THE EDGE OF TOWN

CAROUSEL, TURN OUR FROWNS AROUND
MOVING WITH YOUR MAGIC MOTION
SPINNING AND SPELLBOUND

ORGAN PIPES AND MIRRORS,
ORANGE PINK AND GREEN
GALLOPING HORSES, UP AND DOWN
GRAB THE REINS AND DREAM

A LADY RIDES SIDE SADDLE,
HER DRESS FLOWS WITH THE AIR
CHILDREN SCREAM, LOVERS DREAM,
THE WHEEL WILL TAKE YOU THERE

CAROUSEL, TURN OUR LIVES AROUND
SPIN YOUR WURLIZER MUSIC
FILL THE PARK ON THE EDGE OF TOWN
CAROUSEL, TURN OUR FROWNS AROUND
MIXING UP YOUR MAGIC POTION
SPINNING US SPELLBOUND

INSIDE A GAZEBO BUILDING
THIS PLEASURE FROM THE PAST
COLORS, LIGHTS AND SOUND
TURNING SMOOTH AND FAST

CHILDREN HOLD ON TIGHT,
AS THE TICKET MAN RINGS THE BELL
AN OLD MAN BRACES... HIS MIND RACES,
A TIME REMEMBERED WELL

I’M FOR THE MOMENT
AS I FIND THE CHILD IN ME
THIS HUGE WHEEL GAINS SPEED
AND THE MUSIC SETS ME FREE

CAROUSEL, TURN MY WORLD AROUND
SPIN YOUR WURLIZER MUSIC
FILL OUR HEARTS WITH YOUR SOUND
CAROUSEL, TURN OUR FROWNS AROUND
TURN ME WITH YOUR MAGIC MOTION
SPINNING AND SPELLBOUND
TURN OUR LIVES AROUND...
SPIN YOUR JOYOUS SOUND…

THE TURNTABLE SPINS, A MARCH BEGINS,
OUR FROWNS TURNED UPSIDE DOWN
