the circle game - mia doi todd lyrics
[verse]
yesterday a child came out to wonder
caught a dragonfly inside a jar
fearful when the sky was full of thunder
and tearful at the falling of a star
[chorus]
and the seasons, they go round and round
and the painted ponies go up and down
we’re captive on the carousel of time
we can’t return, we can only look behind from where we came
and go round and round and round in the circle game
[verse]
then the child moved ten times round the seasons
skated over ten clear frozen streams
words like when you’re older must appease him
and promises of ‘some day’ make his dreams
[chorus]
and the seasons, they go round and round
and the painted ponies go up and down
we’re captive on the carousel of time
we can’t return, we can only look behind from where we came
and go round and round and round in the circle game
[verse]
sixteen springs and sixteen summers gone now
cartwheels turn to car wheels through the town
and they tell him, “take your time, it won’t be long now
till you drag your feet to slow the circles down”
[chorus]
and the seasons, they go round and round
and the painted ponies go up and down
we’re captive on a carousel of time
we can’t return, we can only look behind from where we came
and go round and round and round in the circle game
[verse]
so the years spin by and now the boy is twenty
though his dreams have lost some grandeur coming true
there’ll be new dreams, maybe better dreams and plenty
before the last revolving year is through
[chorus]
and the seasons, they go round and round
and the painted ponies go up and down
we’re captive on a carousel of time
we can’t return, we can only look behind from where we came
and go round and round and round in the circle game
[outro]
and go round and round and round in the circle game
and go round and round and round in the circle game
and go round and round and round in the circle game
