Carnival Game

(album: Cheap Trick - 1997)

It was a masquerade at Mardi Gras
That was the only trip that I recall
Everytime I turned around at all
There was you

Some days are easier said than done
Always expecting something's wrong
I'd rather live alone than drag this on

Take your time please lay your hands on me
Don't wanna be alone, oh no
A mask behind the face and then you're gone
Oh,yeah comes a time when you're better off alone
You're on your own

I've got a kaleidoscope of memories
Visions of you locked up inside of me
Can't you see

We once collided like a broken wheel
So undecided what was real
Maybe a crash somehow has sex appeal
Whatever turns you on

Take your time please lay your hands on me
Don't wanna be alone, oh no
A mask behind a face and then you're gone
Oh yeah comes a time when you're better off alone

One down one to go
Oh no, playing in a carnival
Your time is gone

One down one to go
Oh no, playing in a carnival
You're all alone

One down one to go
Oh no, you're on your own
