lyrics

You’re like a ferris wheel, going round and around and around
take me up break me down
like a hurricane, running through this sleepy old town
You’re like a bullet wound, gonna always leave me a scar,
if i survive
like a fire, keeping me warm until i burn, burn alive

You’ve got me captured, hook line sinker the whole 9 yards
reel me in cast me out
like a stray dog, unloved and uncared for.
You’re like a rainbow, oh so pretty, but not for real
there is no pot of gold
but you, somehow make me hopeful

When i am with you, i don't know what to say
but that don’t matter anyway- cause you’re like a ferris wheel.

you’re like the summertime- it never lasts very long
soon the clouds will appear and the sunshine
will soon feel so long gone
your words are like music- lovely till it goes out of tune
then it hurts just to hear what you’re saying
why’s the good gone so soon?

Youre like a ferris wheel
