lyrics

DAVID:
My thoughts are spinning
Twisting
Racing
It's a carousel
I’m back again to wonder whether
This is heav’n or hell
It just goes on, and on
And on, and on
And on, and on
Go round, and round, and round
Just like a never ending song

How do I get off of this carousel?
How do I tell you about how
I fell in love with you?
How do I break down all these walls?
How do I open up and let you see
The thoughts and feelings
Swirling all ‘round me?
Spinning in circles
But there’s so much for me to tell
Stuck on this carousel

I never thought that I would ever
Say that I’m in love
I was just at the point deciding
I would just give up
But, then you came into my life
And now I'm circling;
I realize that I am so afraid
Of being seen

How do I get off of this carousel?
How do I tell you about how
I fell in love with you?
How do I break down all these walls?
What if I open up and let you see
The thoughts and feelings
Swirling all ‘round me?
Spinning in circles
But there’s so much for me to tell
On this carousel

I pushed away
Before you had the chance
To push away
But would you stay
If I said I love you?
I love you?
I love you
Or would you push away
Before I have the chance to even say
“Would you stay?”
I hope you stay

How do I get off of this carousel?
How do I tell you about how
I fell in love with you?
How do I break down all these walls?
What if I open up and let you see
The thoughts and feelings swirling all ‘round me?
Spinning in circles
But there’s so much for me to tell
Stuck on this carousel
