Round and Round (Extended 2)

Chorus

We got cotton candy smiles under wide open tents

Bright red balloons tangled up in the fence

Running fast between the games, hands sticky and free

Laughing 'til we fall down under the old trapeze

Post-Chorus

Round and round, spin again

Round and round, spin again

Verse 2

Tigers yawn in the sunlight, we press close to the rails

Try our luck at a ring toss, make believe we can't fail

Pocket change in our pockets, prizes big as the sky

Clowns waving as we pass, painted tears and pie

Pre-Chorus

The summers felt longer, ice cream melting slow

Friends by our side, nowhere to go

Chorus

We got cotton candy smiles under wide open tents

Bright red balloons tangled up in the fence

Running fast between the games, hands sticky and free

Laughing 'til we fall down under the old trapeze

Post-Chorus

Round and round, spin again

Round and round, spin again

Bridge

Morning comes slow, painted signs fade away

We pull tickets from pockets, one last parade

Lost in the sawdust, a secret we keep

A sunrise tightrope runs through our sleep

Chorus

We got cotton candy smiles under wide open tents

Bright red balloons tangled up in the fence

Running fast between the games, hands sticky and free

Laughing 'til we fall down under the old trapeze

Outro

Empty stands echo, our footsteps stray

But we'll keep that circus with us, day after day

Coda

Dust in the pockets, a ribbon in hair

We chase painted horses, caught in the fair

Old ticket stubs flutter down to our shoes

The magic still lingers wherever we move

Refrain

Spinning, still spinning, holding fast to the light

Circus dreams trailing far into the night
