This is probably my favorite of all of her new songs. It's so beautiful.

Could someone please try to make out the lyrics?

I have some of them I think, but I need help. (:

For all you broken hearted ??
Go find another one
Cuz you know time will ?bring another day?
White rabbits on the run

It's hard to know what's good for you
I know she let you down
But when the fever breaks when it's too much to take
so you can put your weapons down

 And all you'll hear is music
and beauty stands before you
and love comes back around again
it's a carousel my friend

It's never too late to change the pace
The days creep up on you
But the goodness to somethin' you don't have to chase
cuz it's following you

and all you'll hear is music
and beauty stands before you
and love comes back around again
it's a carousel my friend


I could not really understand the bridge so...lol
And the ending is something like


Time awaits so don't be late
white rabbits on the run

The song may be over, but the music never ends.

You did a great job with the lyrics!  The only help I have is with the first line:

For all you broken hearted lovers lost

Sorry I can't be of more help - I'm as lost as you with the bridge haha

Album version lyrics (also posted on page 11 of this thread):
------

For all you broken hearted lovers lost
Go find another one
'Cause you know time won't wait and you'll be late
White rabbits on the run

It's hard to know what's good for you
I know she let you down
But the fever breaks when it's too much to take
So you can put your weapons down

And all you'll hear is the music
And beauty stands before you
And love comes back around again
It's a carousel, my friend

Never too late to change the pace
Oh how the days creep up on you
But the goodness is something you don't have to chase
'Cause it's following you

And all you'll hear is the music
And beauty stands before you
And love comes back around again
It's a carousel, my friend

oo, Oo, oo, Oo, oo, Oo, oo, Oo

I thought I heard your voice in the thunder
Is the owl casting spells that we're under?
I thought I heard your voice in the thunder
Is the owl casting spells that we're under?
I thought I heard your voice in the thunder
Is the owl casting spells that we're under?
I thought I heard your voice in the thunder
Is the owl casting spells that we're under?
Under

Oo
And all I hear is the music
And beauty stands before me
And love comes back around again
It's a carousel, my friend

It's in the music
And beauty stands before you
And love comes back around again
It's a carousel, a carousel
It's a carousel, my friend, oo

Time won't wait, so don't be late
White rabbits on the run

I tried my best, I agree some part were hard and may not be 100% correct, but for the most part I think I did well.

after typing these out
and listening like the 3rd time and understanding what she was saying...
wow.
not gonna lie, I cried.

she always has a way of getting to me, some way...
because I can always find a way to relate.
:(




edit:
anyone else getting that "Cyndi Lauper - True Colors" feel from this song?
I donno why but even after the first listen, I was reminded of that song.

hmm. :)

Thanks for the lyrics, Kulp. They are ACCURATE. (:

And "Carousel" is just awesome. In my opinion, it is somehow a mix of IDWTBAB and Fools Like Me, musically speaking. But the lyrics, they are just.. MAGNIFICENT. V just reminded why I have been a fan of hers.rrrrrrrrrr

Floating on the sea, stars are watching me. Currents take me out, what will be will be.

The lyrics sound spot on to me! Thanks Kulp!

I can definitely hear a bit of a "True Colors" vibe to this song too.

This song is so beautiful, I'm kinda speechless and choked up right now. I really, really love it.

It reminds me of Who's To Say in a major way. (:

I think it's my favourite from the new album. It just beat out Fair-weather Friends. (:

Same here, though I thought it sounds like Fair-Weather Friends.

Such a bittersweet, beautiful song. I loved the 'white rabbits on the run' line.
