Dave Potts - Ferris Wheel lyrics

It's warm for the end of October, even for this town A mist hangs in the autumn air, like it's afraid to touch the ground And the lights are so bright, they won't turn 'em down 'Til the middle of the night, now that the carnival's in town I get this feeling in my heart that I remember well It takes my mind off everything else, like hearing a secret that you're not supposed to tell Two tickets for the ride, and they strap me in Rising up, rising higher, than I have ever been There's something about the way it makes me feel It all looks different from the top of the ferris wheel And I know when my feet finally hit the ground I won't remember, the coming down Mothers and fathers they hold hands, while the carousel spins round This is the only time of year when children screaming is a welcome sound There's cotton candy on my hands and on my face Yeah, everything seems right, it's all in place CHORUS It's cold for the middle of November, I wasn't ready for the rain The parking lot is emptier than I remember, or maybe it's the same The winter's closing in, when the nights pa** slow The bright lights made me think that things were changing but I probably should have known There's no way getting around the way I feel The view's much better from the top of the ferris wheel I should've known when my feet finally hit the ground I would not remember, the coming down The coming down
