Midnight Carousel

[Intro]

Slow walk

Room sings

Eyes lock

Time bends

We spin

And it begins

[Verse 1]

You move like you remember

Every dance from every life

Little quarter on the table

You just bought my Friday night

Tiny scar upon your knuckle

You said "long story

Maybe later"

Now your laughter in the mirror

Turning minutes into vapor

[Chorus]

Midnight carousel

Round and round we go

I can't get off this spell

You pull me close

I forget myself

Spinning in your orbit

In your orbit

Midnight

What a ride

All the colors on your skin when our worlds collide

If this is wrong

I don't wanna decide

Leave me in your orbit

In your orbit (hey)

[Verse 2]

Passport on your dresser

Stamps I never learned to say

You trace cities on my shoulder

Saying "we could leave today"

You steal olives from my cocktail

Say "I always take too much"

I say "baby

Take it all then"

You just answer with a touch

[Chorus]

Midnight carousel

Round and round we go

I can't get off this spell

You pull me close

I forget myself

Spinning in your orbit

In your orbit

Midnight

What a ride

All the colors on your skin when our worlds collide

If this is wrong

I don't wanna decide

Leave me in your orbit

In your orbit (oh yeah)

[Bridge]

[beat drops to bass and claps]

Tell me your real name

Tell me your worst shame

Tell me the thing that you

Never say out loud

You said "I'm always late

Running from everything"

I said "for once

Just stay

Stay with me right now" (right now)

[Chorus]

Midnight carousel

Round and round we go

I can't get off this spell

You pull me close

I forget myself

Spinning in your orbit

In your orbit

Midnight

What a ride

All the colors on your skin when our worlds collide

If this is wrong

I don't wanna decide

Leave me in your orbit

In your orbit

[Outro]

[full band hits

Then fade on vocal riff]

Round and round and round

We go

We go (we go)

Midnight carousel

I don't wanna know

Where the morning is

Just your hand in mine

One more turn

My love

One more crooked line
