Beirut - Carousels lyrics

Carousels twirl all around exited youth
I do not mind at all
We're tonight in a world full of thrills - it can (come) carry me up,
far above it all

It's a long way down from here to the sound
Watch the faces go ‘round
to the stars
then the ground

Ferris wheels carried us away
not so long ago
Times I've betrayed
Where would we be now if I had taken your hand?
Well the years they pass by slow
don't they?

It's a long way down from here to the sound
Watch the faces go ‘round
to the stars
then the ground
