Lyrics

It's warm for the end of October, even for this town
A mist hangs in the autumn air, like it's afraid to touch the ground
The lights are so bright they won't turn 'em down
Till the middle of the night, now that the carnival's in town
I get this feeling in my heart, that I remember well
It takes my mind off everything else
Like hearing a secret that you're not supposed to tell
Two tickets for the ride and they strap me in
Rising up, rising higher, than I have ever been
There's something about the way it makes me feel
It all looks different from the top of the ferris wheel
And I know when my feet finally hit the ground
I will not remember, the coming down
Mothers and fathers they hold hands, as the carousel spins 'round
This is the only time of year when children screaming
Is a welcome sound
As the cotton candy melts right in my mouth
I hardly even notice, as the ride starts slowing down
There's something about the way it makes me feel
It all looks different from the top of the ferris wheel
And I know when my feet finally hit the ground
I will not remember, the coming down
When I wonder if the ride is worth the price
As soon as it begins to spin, all my cares are gone
And I am high up in the air
Where my life is just as simple as a day at the small town fair
It's cold for the middle of November, I wasn't ready for the rain
The parking lot seems emptier than I remember
Or maybe it's just the same
The winter's closing in when the nights pass slow
All the bright lights made me think that things were changing
But I probably should've known
There's no way getting around the way I feel
The view's much better from the top of the ferris wheel
I should've known when my feet finally hit the ground
I would not remember, the coming down
