Lyric
Oh love’s a merry go round so Mary go round with meWon’t you takin’ a ride deep down inside you know you’ll never be freeAnd it was love we found on the merry go round so now for all the world to seeWhether wrong or right we’re back in love tonight so Mary go round with meIt seems like yesterday that you and I fell in loveAnd a thousand dreams ago we said goodbyeBut seeing you tonight it’s as though time has stood stillAnd all the love we knew before shines in your eyesCause love’s a merry go roundWhether wrong or right we’re back in love tonight so Mary go round with me
