E
The carousel is spinning fast
C
Better enjoy while it lasts
Every moment is like gold
E
You'll remember when you're old
And the meaning of this life
C
Is to live and is to die
Make the best out of your dreams
E
They are the world where you are free
All the sorrow and the pain
C
Will be washed away by rain
An eternal joy will come
E
It can be found by everyone
Though the end is drawing near
C
I'm not feeling any fear
I have found the truth inside
E
After all the tears I cry
C
Season of Change
Repeat E ,C and fade out.
