(Jimmy Webb)

The end has come and found us here

With our toys scattered all around us here

The puzzle that we never found an answer for

Still asks us, darlin', just what all the games were for

And here we stand in a box of sand

Where's the playground Susie?

You're the one who's supposed to know her way around

Where's the playground Susie

If I don't stay around?

If I don't stay around?

The carousel has stopped us here

It twirled a time or two and then it dropped us here

And still you're not content with something about me

But what merry-go-round can you ride without me

To take your hand

How would you stand?

Where's the playground Susie

If I decide to let you go and play around?

Where's the playground Susie

If I don't stay around?

If I don't stay around?

Where's the playground Susie?

You're the one who's supposed to know her way around

Where's the playground Susie

If I decide to let you go and play around?
