Lyrics/Music: Howard Greenfield/Neil Sedaka Ed. Careers BMG Music Publishing, Inc./Screen Gems - EMI Music, Inc. Disc: 1970_Make It With You - 01 - [Capitol ST-622] Look at the world I have conquered, I've won every spin of the wheel. I get everything I go after, They ask me how does it feel. I tell them that I'd trade the moon For a string with an orange balloon, And the days when my only dream Was a dish of vanilla ice-cream. Give me one more chance at the midway, Let me laugh and be gay as a clown, Give me back the world I remember, One more ride on the merry go round. . . . . . . I do my shopping in Paris, My clothes are Balmain and Dior. I have money to buy friends and lovers, Well, isn't that what it's for? But when I go to my bedroom And stare at my hand painted sky I think of a world far behind me, A world that my money can't buy. Give me one more chance at the midway, Let me dance with my feet off the ground. Give me back the world I remember, One more ride on the merry go round One more ride on the merry go round [fade out] One more ride on the merry go round
