my carousel sits by the sea
in the gray and the mist
still as it can be
waiting for the man to start the machinery
and let the cogs and pullies turn again
my carousel sleeps in the night
dreaming that i might
turn on his lights
but to take you for a ride all through the misty blue
is only something someday i might do
when i get around to you
my carousel is brave in the wind
refusing to rust
till it turns again
and one day you might spin with me a time or two
up and down and underneath the moon
when i get around to you
my carousel sits by the sea
hoping that i might meet destiny
and trade in my line for a circular route
and realize this is where i'm going to
when i get around to you
