I've been dreamin' & drivin' so fast for so long Fallin' & climbin', fallin' & carryin' on Hell bent on stayin' one step ahead So caught up in the game, I can't catch my breath Livin' too bright to soak up the sun Missin' the miles for the races I've run But I'm slowly slowin' me down Knowin' this world will go round It'll keep goin' round even when I stop spinnin' I'm figurin' out it ain't all about winnin' You ride like the wind Smile like a child Land with both feet on the ground The trick is to know when to let go of the merry go round When the ride leaves you dizzy and life's such a blur There's no difference between where you are & where you were It's movin' too fast, and God knows it will Sometimes you need some time sittin' still And I'm slowly slowin' me down Knowin' this world will go round It'll keep goin' round even when I stop spinnin' I'm figurin' out it ain't all about winnin' You ride like the wind Smile like a child Land with both feet on the ground The trick is to know when to let go of the merry go round You ride like the wind Smile like a child Land with both feet on the ground The trick is to know when to let go The trick is to know when to let go of the merry go round Oh this merry go round
