8.The Circle Game

Lyrics:Joni Mitchell
Music:Joni Mitchell
Arranger:Chris Babida

Yesterday a child came out to wonder
Caught a dragon fly 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
And 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 where we came
And go round and round and round in the circle game

Sixteen springs and sixteen summers gone now
Cart-wheels turn to car-wheels through the town
And they tell him take your time it won't be long now
Till you drag your feet to slow the circles down

Repeat *
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 may be better dreams and plenty
Before the last revolving year is through

Repeat *

And go round and round and round in the circle game
