Carnival

Fairy lights and muslin drapes
The eyes that see us are sleeping
Bottle of whisky, bottle of wine
Both from which we are drinking

Dhalias in December
Chrysanthemums in June
In a town that can't remember
From dusk to dawn, my love was gone

Between the veil of darkness and light
The sweet and sorrowful hours
That separates morning and night
I'll roll you in the flowers

Across the world I wander
My moments made from years
On a still and silent midway
I wait for you to reappear

Carnival, lulling to sleep
No one can hear our voices.
I can tell your future and past
By the light of the carousel horses

Across this world I wander
My moments made from years
On a still and silent midway
I wait for you to reappear
