I remember so long ago wondering

Could we stay this way forever

On this carousel turning and laughing

We just wanted to be together



And so we did it

We left on our own merry way

Into this world alone



In the sand at the sea we lay gazing

At the stars up above in the heavens

There was nothing to keep us from playing

We just wanted to be together



Why did we do it

We left on our own merry way

Into this world alone



Little did we know

Where we were going then

And when things got cold

Trying not to pretend



Ooo...



And still we did it

We left on our own merry way

Into this world alone



How were we to know

Things were so simple then

Somehow we lost hope

Falling to earth again



Then came that cold winter's day

When we ended it forever

After everything we used to say

There was nothing to keep us together



And so we did it

Each left on our own merry way

Back to this world alone
