[Verse 1]
Listen to the quiet
Hear it closing in
Ever since you left me
That's how it begins

[Chorus]
And around and around and around I go (Got me down pretty baby)
Round and around and around I go

[Verse 2]
Play a little louder
Bring the trumpets in
Cover up my heartbeat
When the tears begin

[Chorus]
And around and around and around I go (Got me down pretty baby)
Round and around and around I go

[Verse 3]
Let me hear the music
Let me hear the drums
Drown out all my sorrow
Oh hurry till it comes
[Chorus]
And around and around and around I go (Got me down pretty baby)
Round and around and around I go

[Bridge]
I can't take the pain or run for cover when the night gets lonely
Run for places where my face is new and no one's ever known me
They make me laugh (Hey, hey, hey)

[Verse 4]
Ride the calliope
Up and down
When the ride is over
I crumble to the ground

[Chorus]
And around and around and around I go
Round and around and around I go
Round and around and around I go
Round and around and around I go
