Lyrics

0:17Fairy lights and muslin drapes
0:23The eyes that see us are sleeping
0:31Bottle of whisky bottle of wine
0:37Both from which we are drinking
0:45Dallies in December Chrysanthemums in June
0:58In a town that can't remember
1:05From dusk to dawn my love was gone
1:30Between the veil of dusk and light
1:37The sweet and sorrowful hour
1:44That separates morning and night
1:51I roll you in the flour
1:59Across the world I wonder
2:06My moments made from years
2:13On a still and silent midway
2:20I wait for you to reappear
2:59Carnival lull me to sleep
3:06No one can hear our voices
3:13I can tell your future and past
3:20By the light of the carousel horses
3:29Across the world I wonder
3:37My moments made from years
3:44On a still and silent midway
3:51I wait for you to reappear
Fairy lights and muslin drapes
The eyes that see us are sleeping
Bottle of whisky  bottle of wine
Both from which we are drinking
Dallies in December  Chrysanthemums in June
In a town that can't remember
From dusk to dawn  my love was gone
Between the veil of dusk and light
The sweet and sorrowful hour
That separates morning and night
I roll you in the flour
Across the world I wonder
My moments made from years
On a still and silent midway
I wait for you to reappear
Carnival  lull me to sleep
No one can hear our voices
I can tell your future and past
By the light of the carousel horses
Across the world I wonder
My moments made from years
On a still and silent midway
I wait for you to reappear
