《The Circle Game (Take One)》歌词

[00:00:01] The Circle Game (Take One) - Tom Rush

[00:00:21] Yesterday a child came

[00:00:25] Out to wonder

[00:00:31] Caught a dragonfly inside a jar

[00:00:40] Fearful when the sky

[00:00:44] Was full of thunder

[00:00:50] And tearful at the falling of a star

[00:01:40] Then the child moved ten

[00:01:42] Times round the seasons

[00:01:49] Skated over ten clear frozen streams

[00:01:58] Words like when youre

[00:02:01] Older must appease him

[00:02:08] And promises of someday make his dreams

[00:02:57] And the seasons they go round and round

[00:03:02] And the painted ponies go up and dawn

[00:03:07] Were captive on the carousel of time

[00:03:17] We cant return we con only look behind

[00:03:21] From where we came

[00:03:24] And go round and round and round

[00:03:29] In the circle game

[00:03:45] Sixteen springs and

[00:03:46] Sixteen summers gone now

[00:03:53] Cartwheels turn to car wheels thru the town

[00:03:56] And they tell him

[00:04:03] Take your time it wont be long now

[00:04:13] Till you drag your feet

[00:04:16] To slow the circles down

[00:04:22] And the seasons they go round and round

[00:04:27] And the painted ponies go up and dawn

[00:04:32] Were captive on the carousel of time

[00:04:41] We cant return we can only look behind

[00:04:47] From where we came

[00:04:49] And go round and round and round

[00:04:55] In the circle game

[00:05:02] So the years spin by

[00:05:04] And now the boy is twenty

[00:05:10] Though his dreams have lost some grandeur

[00:05:12] Coming true

[00:05:13] Therell be new dreams

[00:05:14] Maybe better dreams and plenty

[00:05:16] Before the last revolving year is through

[00:05:18] And the seasons

[00:05:19] They go round and round

[00:05:21] And the painted ponies go up and down

[00:05:23] Were captive on the

[00:05:24] Carousel of time

[00:05:24] We cant return we can only look behind

[00:05:26] From where we came

[00:05:27] And go round and round and round

[00:05:29] In the circle game
