Carousel Days

Got a hole inside
I'm telling you I cannot lie
I've been riding on the chicane
Breaking down on my road again

Like my bones I ache tonight
I have no cash to dine with
I'm only giving you roses
Cos I'm broke and I'm tired of cruising

Inside our room shaded from light
In a rose filled doorway
You said remember how it was
When we use to buy our way out of here

Carousel days, seemed like forever
When we all sailed the breeze
California way
Where the air was warm and sweet

It was such a thrill
I don't know how we could just lose it
There's only one place one time
When I thought we were more than sailing
More than sailing

Carousel days, seemed like forever
When we all sailed the breeze
Carousel days
When the air was so warm and sweet
And California way, seemed like forever
When we all sailed through the breeze
I'm sorry for turning
Driving us further down the wrong lane
