I sat there alone upon the ferris wheel
A pastel-colored carriage in the air
I thought you d leave me dangling for a little while
A silly twist upon a childish dare
Below I saw you whisper to another man
Who held the lever that could bring me down
He stopped the world from turning at your command
It s always something cruel when left to drown
Chorus
I can hardly hear the music from the carousel
The wind picks upthe carriage starts to sway
And one by one the lights go outit s closing time
I see you take his hand and walk away
Walk away
They say that you are always the last to know
They say that all that glitters is not gold
It s not just that you re never coming back to me
It s the bitter way that I was told.
Chorus
