Circle Game - Harry Belafonte[00:00:00]
Written by:Mitchell Joni[00:00:00]
Yesterday a child came out to wonder[00:00:00]
Caught a dragonfly inside a jar[00:00:09]
Fearful when the sky is full of thunder[00:00:17]
And tearful at the falling of a star[00:00:24]
And the seasons they go 'round and 'round[00:00:32]
And the painted ponies go up and down[00:00:36]
We're captive on the carousel of time[00:00:41]
We can't return we can only look behind[00:00:49]
From where we came[00:00:54]
And go 'round and 'round and 'round in the circle game[00:00:56]
Then the child moved ten times round the seasons[00:01:06]
Skated over ten clear frozen streams[00:01:14]
Words like when you're older must appease him[00:01:21]
And promises of someday make his dreams[00:01:29]
And the seasons they go 'round and 'round[00:01:37]
And the painted ponies go up and down[00:01:41]
We're captive on the carousel of time[00:01:46]
We can't return we can only look behind[00:01:53]
From where we came[00:01:58]
And go 'round and 'round and 'round in the circle game[00:02:00]
Sixteen springs and sixteen summers gone now[00:02:10]
Cartwheels last turn to car wheels through the town[00:02:18]
And they tell him take your time it won't be long now[00:02:25]
'Till you drag your feet to slow the circle down[00:02:33]
So the boy who dream tomorrow now is twenty[00:02:41]
Though his dreams have lost some grandeur coming true[00:02:48]
There'll be new dreams maybe better dreams and plenty[00:02:57]
Before the last revolving year is through[00:03:05]
And the seasons they go 'round and 'round[00:03:13]
And the painted ponies go up and down[00:03:17]
We're captive on the carousel of time[00:03:22]
We can't return we can only look behind[00:03:29]
From where we came[00:03:34]
And go 'round and 'round and 'round in the circle game[00:03:36]
And go 'round and 'round and 'round in the circle game[00:03:45]
