merry go round

Spinnin' around on this merry-go-round I'm still sat at the teacup speak up You tell me that you're not allowed And now it's slowing down and you're not around Sat on the cushion of the high horse Praying for the right words wedding gowns are Telling me to ask first But when my knees hit the floor you weren't sure I was the one you asked for So I'll sit here in my ball gown Waiting for the bomb sounds Setting off the guard hounds I'll wait until my veil browns Hidden under dark clouds Praying that this old town burns down In a sea of "How?" 's While I'm chained to our old merry-go-round Blurring the lights to focus your eyes Should've buckled the seatbelts I told you that I hadn't learned to dive But I'm ready to try Open the curtain to the town light Blanketed in moonlight Traffic lights are waltzing and I'm alright But when I asked you to stay you sailed through the bay And took our rusted love away So I'll sit here in my ball gown Waiting for the bomb sounds Setting off the guard hounds I'll wait until my veil browns Hidden under dark clouds Praying that this old town burns down In a sea of "How?" 's While I'm chained to our old merry-go-round It took five steps off the Golden Gate For you to be four seconds late But I can't complain I love the pain How's it feel To lose the one who got away? So I'll sit here in my ball gown Waiting for the bomb sounds Setting off the guard hounds I'll wait until my veil browns Hidden under dark clouds Praying that this old town burns down In a sea of "How?" 's ("How?" 's) While I'm chained to our old merry-go-round While I'm chained to our old merry-go-round While I'm chained to our old merry-go-round
