see her walking alone in this city of heartache and stone she finds her way down to where she once found all her dreams she doesn't understand why something she'd given her heart to could die but that's just the way it works out they say it's alright (chorus) she's coming back down this carousel ride has stopped spinning round she wants to say she's sorry and stay but it's too late now this carousel ride has shut down fingertips trace the lines pens and papers recall the good times but clocks they do run and change what's been done say goodbye (chorus) (bridge) and i want you to come with me tonight i don't know if it's real but it surely feels right (chorus)
