Merry-Go-Round of Life

This is based off the song 'Merry-Go-Round of Life', obviously.

It's a song created by Joe Hisaishi for the Sutdio Ghibli Film 'Howl's Moving Castle'.

Enjoy

On one fine Sunday morning I woke

The chimney stalk was full of great smoke

And looking through my fiberglass window pane

I saw a parade going down the lane

--

It was the fair that came every year

The one that brought laughter to everybody here

And I ran out to see the big carousel

Being placed on the field near the well

--

It was the Merry-Go-Round of Life

You will feel wonders and you will feel strife

As you go up and as you go down

Spinning you around and around and around

--

Once you mount your horse on that Merry-Go Round

It will lift you high off the ground

It’ll play music as you twirl upon your horse

As you go through life’s very course

--

At first you’ll go very slow

With speed, you’ll begin to know

That this is no regular carousel

Because with its magic you’ll tell

--

That this ride is the ride of your days

A ride of your years, happiness and ways

The times of high and the days of low

The days of great joy, the times of woe

--

At the end, you had all your fun

You are old, and you’re finished and done

It’s time to walk off the ride and give

That chance for another to live

--

On this Merry-Go-Round of Life

You will feel wonders and you will feel strife

As you go up and as you go down

Spinning you around and around and around

--

On that Merry-Go-Round of Life
