shades of laughter
catch in a web
of warm spun sugar
whose scent lies languid on the air

like memories
of youth
and a stolen kiss
high atop the ferris wheel

prancing ponies
throbbing music
flashing lights
mirrored smiles

barking voices
games of notta chance
shiny prizes
grasp at rings just outta reach

spinning, spinning, spinning
living for the moment
I could dance
happy here with you

let me see the suckling pigs
ride the rides with me
dance me down the Midway
take me to the fair!
