Barbra Streisand - I Stayed Too Long At The Fair lyrics

Your rating:

I wanted the music to play on forever 
Have I stayed too long at the fair? 
I wanted the clown to be constantly clever 
Have I stayed too long at the fair? 
I bought me blue ribbons to tie up my hair, 
But I couldn't find anybody to care; 
The merry-go-round is beginning to slow now 
Have I stayed too long at the fair? 
The music has stop and the children must go now 
Have I stayed too long at the fair? 
Oh, mother dear, I know you're very proud, 
Your little girl in gingham is so far above the crowd; 
No, daddy dear, You never could have known 
That I would be successful, yet so very much alone... 
I wanted to live in a carnival city, 
With laughter and love everywhere; 
I wanted my friends to be thrilling and witty, 
I wanted somebody to care; 
I found my blue ribbons all shiny and new 
But now I discover them no longer blue... 
The merry-go-round is beginning to taunt me, 
Have I stayed too long at the fair? 
There's nothing to win 
And there's no one to want me 
Have I stayed too long at the fair?
