Yesterday a child came out to wonder
Caught a dragonfly 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
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 were we came
And go round and round and round in the circle game

Then the child moved ten times round the seasons
He skated over ten clear frozen streams
Words like “when you?re older” must appease him
And promises of someday make his dreams

Sixteen springs and sixteen summers gone now
Cartwheels turn to car wheels through the town
And they tell him “take your time it won?t be long now”
Until you drag your feet just to slow the circles down

So the years spin by and now the boy is twenty
Though his dreams have lost some grandeur coming true
There?ll be new dreams maybe better dreams and plenty
Before the last revolving year is through
