Children smile on carousels,
Cuddly toys sing fairy tales,
Tanned silky fingers play with my hand,
Alice in Pink Wonderland.
There is wheels reached for the sky,
Butterflies that come alive,
With every falling and every rise,
I see the stars in your eyes.
Those days we locked on carousels,
Lived in fairy tales,
The life we lived,
the love we gave,
Seemed such a shame to kiss goodbye,
That's the way we were,
Only yesterday,
we laughed,
we played,
We hope today will stay the same,
Forever and a day,
Just one more day,
And now that yesterday has slipped away,
We hang on to the dream of you and I.
Decorated dreamy eyes,
Dream away and tell me lies,
Look out the window and touch the sky,
Alice in Lost Wonderland.
Shooting stars fall out of sight,
Carousels turn off at night,
Sunlight must give way to moonlight,
Children grow up over night.
In those days we locked on carousels,
Lived in fairy tales,
The life we lived,
the love we gave,
Seemed such a shame to kiss goodbye,
That's the way we were,
Only yesterday,
we laughed, we played,
We hope today will stay the same,
Forever and a day,
Just one more day,
And now that yesterday has slipped away,
We hang on to the dream of you and I.
Is it time for me to go?
Love me please and tell me no,
I know our love has its ups and downs,
Please don't you tell me to go.
In those days we locked on carousels,
Lived in fairy tales,
The life we lived,
the love we gave,
Seemed such a shame to kiss goodbye,
That's the way we were,
Only yesterday,
we laughed,
we played,
We hope today will stay the same,
Forever and a day,
Just one more day,
And now that yesterday has slipped away,
We hang on to the dream of you and I.
