Replacements - Merry Go Round Lyrics
Hush was the first word you were taughtAnd they watched you wearThe clothes they claimed that they boughtThey brought you downTo watch the merry-go aroundIn fall, you knew how much it costA trouble dollAround your neck when you lostYou wouldnt make a soundBut I could hear your little heart poundAnd I watched your feet slip off the groundMerry go round in dreamsWrites em down, it seemsWhen she sleeps, shes freeMerry go round in dreamsYou wake to another day and findThe winds blowing out of key with your skyOnly you can seeAnd the rain dancing in the nightEverybody stands around in delightMerry go round in dreamsWrites em down, it seemsWhen she sleeps, shes freeMerry go round in dreamsAnd everybody thinks shes sickShes got two worlds she can pickAnd shes sadHush is the only word you knowAnd I stopped listening long agoThey ignored me with a smileYou as a childBut the trouble doll hears your heart poundAnd your feet they say goodbye to the groundMerry go round in dreamsWrites em down. it seemsWhen she sleeps, shes freeMerry go round in dreamsMerry go round in dreamsMerry go round in meMerry go roundRound and round in meMerry go roundRound and round in me
