Merry Go Round

(álbum: The Long Way Home - 2009)

I've been dreaming & driving so fast for so long
Falling & climbing, falling & carrying on
Hell bent on staying one step ahead
So caught up in the game, I can't catch my breath
Living too bright to soak up the sun
Missing the miles for the races I've run

But I'm slowly slowing me down
Knowing this world will go round
It'll keep going round even when I stop spinning
I'm figuring out it ain't all about winning
You ride like the wind
Smile like a child
Land with both feet on the ground
The trick is to know when to let go of the merry go round

When the ride leaves you dizzy and life's such a blur
There's no difference between where you are & where you were
It's moving too fast, and God knows it will
Sometimes you need some time sitting still

And I'm slowly slowing me down
Knowing this world will go round
It'll keep going round even when I stop spinning
I'm figuring out it ain't all about winning
You ride like the wind
Smile like a child
Land with both feet on the ground
The trick is to know when to let go of the merry go round

You ride like the wind
Smile like a child
Land with both feet on the ground
The trick is to know when to let go
The trick is to know when to let go of the merry go round
Oh this merry go round
