Warner Bros. Records - Carnival lyrics

[Verse 1:] I've walked these streets A virtual stage It seemed to me Make up on their faces Actors took their places next to me I've walked these streets In a carnival Of sights to see All the cheap thrill seekers The vendors & the dealers They crowded around me [Chorus:] Have I been blind? Have I been lost? Inside myself and my own mind? Hypnotized Mesmerized By what my eyes have seen? [Verse 2:] I've walked these streets In a spectacle of wealth & poverty In the diamond market The scarlet welcome carpet That they just rolled out for me I've walked these streets In the mad house asylum They can be Where a wild eyed misfit prophet On a traffic island stopped And he raved of saving me [Chorus] [Bridge:] Have I been wrong? Have I been wise? To shut my eyes and play along? Hypnotized Paralyzed By what my eyes have found By what my eyes have seen What they have seen? [Chorus:] Have I been blind? Have I been lost? Have I been wrong? Have I been wise? Have I been strong? Have I been Hypnotized Mesmerized By what my eyes have found In that great street carnival In that carnival
