The Circle Game Lyrics:Joni Mitchell Arranger:Joni Mitchell Yesterday a child come out to wonder Caught a dragon fly inside a jar Fearful when the sky was full of thunder And tearful at the falling of a star And the seasons they go round and round And the painted ponies go up and down We're captive on the carousel of time We can't return we can only look behind from where we came And go round and round and round in the circle game Then the child moved ten times round the seasons Skated over ten clear frozen streams Words like when you're older must appease him And promises of someday make his dreams Repeat * Six-teen springs and six-teen summers gone now Cart-wheels turn to car-wheels thou' the town And they tell him take you're time it won't be long now Till you drag your feet to slow the circles down So 编辑于2006/03/24更新
