Carousel

What if you leave? What if you stay? A lover by night A stranger by day Out of my dreams And into my life Your promises heal Your lies cut like a knife You change your love And leave my heart in the wishing well Spinning round like a carousel Your love is my food Then you take it away It's better to starve It's better this way Maybe I should forget And just run away But I wasn't born a runner And you weren't born to stay You change your mind Come and go like the changing tide Round and round like a carousel So I let you run- your bridges won't burn And one day when your wandering's over I hope that you'll return, that you'll return But you're like a bird Wild and free So I'll have to wait For you to fly back to me But if I look up in the sky And it's you that I see At least one of us is happy At least one of us is free You change your love And leave my heart in the wishing well Spinning round like a carousel You change your mind Come and go like the changing tide Round and round like a carousel Round and round like a carousel Round and round like a carousel
