Merry Go-Round
Well, you didn't get everything you want
But that don't mean you can scream and shout
Little girl I ain't gonna do this dance all night
Cuz I'm too busy being' proud
I'm walking' ten feet up off the ground
Little girl, you're through holding' me down
Oh this fight
it ends tonight
It's time you and I move along
And all you did
was drag me down
It's time I got off this merry go-round
I never thought that I'd be free
I thought I was stuck just being' me but
I can see the sun when I wake up
Maybe I'm wrong, and I'm just a fool
But I'm through being' a fool for you, yeah
Little girl, get ready for the new dawn
For so long
we let things go wrong
Let me go
once and for all
And all I did
was drag you down
It's time you got off
this merry go-round
You always lived like you were blind
Wanted me to live like I was doing' time.
Gotta set me free and let me find
I ain't meant to be yours, you ain't meant to be mine
The sky's so big and I feel so tall
There ain't no chains on me at all
I'm ready to go. I'm ready to run
Oh this fight
it ends tonight
It's time you and I
moved along
And all we did
was drag each other down
It's time we got off
this merry go-round
But that don't mean you can scream and shout
Little girl I ain't gonna do this dance all night
Cuz I'm too busy being' proud
I'm walking' ten feet up off the ground
Little girl, you're through holding' me down
Oh this fight
it ends tonight
It's time you and I move along
And all you did
was drag me down
It's time I got off this merry go-round
I never thought that I'd be free
I thought I was stuck just being' me but
I can see the sun when I wake up
Maybe I'm wrong, and I'm just a fool
But I'm through being' a fool for you, yeah
Little girl, get ready for the new dawn
For so long
we let things go wrong
Let me go
once and for all
And all I did
was drag you down
It's time you got off
this merry go-round
You always lived like you were blind
Wanted me to live like I was doing' time.
Gotta set me free and let me find
I ain't meant to be yours, you ain't meant to be mine
The sky's so big and I feel so tall
There ain't no chains on me at all
I'm ready to go. I'm ready to run
Oh this fight
it ends tonight
It's time you and I
moved along
And all we did
was drag each other down
It's time we got off
this merry go-round
