I Stayed Too Long At The Fair lyrics
Song information
Artist: Barbra Streisand Album: Second Barbra Streisand Album
Lyrics
I wanted the music to play on forever Have I stayed too long at the fair? I wanted the clown to be constantly clever Have I stayed too long at the fair? I bought me blue ribbons to tie up my hair But I couldn't find anybody to care; The merry-go-round is beginning to slow now Have I stayed too long at the fair? The music has stop and the children must go now Have I stayed too long at the fair? Oh, mother dear, I know you're very proud Your little girl in gingham is so far above the crowd; No, daddy dear, you never could have known That I would be successful, yet so very much alone.. I wanted to live in a carnival city With laughter and love everywhere; I wanted my friends to be thrilling and witty I wanted somebody to care; I found my blue ribbons all shiny and new But now I discover them no longer blue.. The merry-go-round is beginning to taunt me Have I stayed too long at the fair? There's nothing to win And there's no one to want me Have I stayed too long at the fair?
