Here we go again, around and around.
Oh, it's a merry ride 'til you're back on the ground.
Youre dizzy of the child 'til the tickets are gone,
And it's time for the carnival to be moving on.

It carries you up oh, it makes you feel alive.
It makes you laugh, makes you cry.
We fold the tents we take the carousel apart and roll away.
We roll away
The sooner you can learn it never lasts,
the more you'll enjoy the carnival.

Don't hold you're breath, don't close your eyes.
Let go of the handlebars, so your fingers can fly
Seize the night and the autumn wind,
'til we close the house of fun and leave town again.

Don't be afraid to be so easily amused.
It's a thrill we all could use
Just like love, it wears a candy apple coat that melts away,
We melt away
And the sooner you can learn it never lasts,
the more you'll enjoy the carnival

Listen for the calliope
Keep lookout for the clowns
Be the first in line, the last to leave
When we come back around

It carries you up. Oh, it makes you feel alive.
It makes you laugh, It makes you cry
Just like love, it wears a candy apple coat that melts away.
We melt away
And it's over in the twinkling of an eye,
so enjoy the carnival
Enjoy the carnival
Enjoy the carnival
