(Chorus 1) play without lyrics as intro
Verse 1:
G# C#
The carousel begins to slow, I take my chances
G# C#
So far removed, I fail to see
Fm C#
The recklessness I've shown in all my words and deeds
Cm D#
The good in other souls I never fail to see
Chorus 1:
G# C#
Can you see the light - As far as the eyes can see
G# C#
From this point above the world - Where mortals dare their destiny
Fm C#
As it radiates, may I witness open-eyed
Cm C#
Let me remain where there is light
Chorus 2:
G# C#
In want of courage - It is as a shield for me
G# C#
In want of hope - It reassures and carries me
Fm C#
As it radiates, may I witness open-eyed
Cm C#
Let me remain where there is light
Verse 2:
Letting go was never easy
Risking all for what I wanted, never needed
Deliberated whether I should serve the cause of greater things
As we moved worlds apart
(Chorus 1)
Silent part:
Fm C# D# Fm
The greatest words would still fail me now.
Fm C# D#
These emotions I cannot describe.
Fm C# D# G#
I want to be where I don't need to hide myself
C# D# G#
And remain there until the end of time.
Fm C# D# Fm
The gods play games with mortal hearts
Fm C# D#
As the carousel goes 'round.
Fm C# D# G#
As I looked on, I saw the crowds
C# D# G#
who gathered walk away.
(Chorus 1)
(Chorus 2)
