Tracy Morris - Carousel Ride Lyrics

People think my life is grand
But, they don't know the trouble with sand
Slowly, slowly it trickles through
The hourglass window distorts the view

Mosquitoes in my garden and dents in my car
Lots of sticky fingers on my cookie jar
Gossip and stories and so-called news
Feed the vultures a delicious stew

There's no need for a rebel yell
From our ivory citadel
Hear the pitter-patter, what a lovely sound
Your love makes my world go 'round

Nature is abuzz with the sound - undisguised and unrefined
Joy and melancholy echo around - syncopated and harmonized

Life is just a carousel ride around we go - biding our time
Through ups and downs, we're side by side on this zany carousel ride

Go with the flow on the carousel
It's against time but, it parallels
The other side that goes the other way
And their position will remain

Nature is abuzz with the sound - undisguised and unrefined
Joy and melancholy echo around - syncopated and harmonized

Spinning, rolling, whirling, floating
Just sit back and enjoy the ride
Try to relax - roll with the tide

Life is just a carousel ride around we go - biding our time
Through ups and downs, we're side by side on this zany carousel ride

Spinning, rolling, whirling, floating
Just sit back and enjoy the ride
Try to relax - roll with the tide

Life is just a carousel ride around we go - biding our time
Through ups and downs, we're side by side on this zany carousel ride

Life is just a carousel ride around we go - biding our time...
