Sunset Carousel

You came south from Chicago
In your brand new cut off jeans
You said, "Piña colada"
And I said, "This one's on me"
I watched you sway to the music
You stayed close enough to see
You gave me your number
Said, "I'm staying right down the beach"

We'd go down to the water
And drink straight from the bottle
The waves rolled in when we were just setting sail
We rode around all summer
We knew the end was coming
At least we'd have a hell of a story to tell
From that sunset carousel

We took off like the sunrise
Just watched those ponies spin
That first time in July
And over and over and over again

We'd go down to the water
And drink straight from the bottle
The waves rolled in when we were just setting sail
We rode around all summer
We knew the end was coming
At least we'd have a hell of a story to tell
From that sunset carousel
From that sunset carousel

Like a souvenir sticker, the colors fade
But we held on like they wouldn't, but then September came

We'd go down to the water
And drink straight from the bottle
The waves rolled in when we were just setting sail
We rode around all summer
We knew the end was coming
At least we'd have a hell of a story to tell
From that sunset carousel
From that sunset carousel
