Mmm...
Sit with me a minute while we take in the calm
Let the breeze waft over our faces
It's clear that quite apart from this bench in the park
You and I are in different places, mm
Sometimes it feels like a fairground
When life just laughs at you like a clown
It's fast and it's exciting
And really so inviting
Sometimes it really gets you down
Oh-oh, sometimes it really brings you down
Isn't life such a wonderful thing
With all its twists and turns, twists and turns, twists and turns
Twisting and I'm turning
While I'm burning that candle
Can you handle it?
Round and round in circles like a ferris wheel
Guess you didn't sign up for that kind of deal
Ooo... Sometimes it feels like a fairground
When life turns like a merry-go-round
It's fast and it's exciting
And really so inviting
Sometimes it really gets you down
Ooo, sometimes it really brings you down
Ooo, we push, we pull, we try to fit a mould
Let's break the mould instead
Upside down and round like a carousel
Upside down, round and round (ooo)
Can we see eye to eye and break the spell?
Sometimes it feels like a fairground
I'll take you there, honey, you will see
I'll ask you politely
But I won't ask lightly
Can you take the ride with me?
Can you take the ride with me?
