Rosemary Clooney - I Stayed Too Long At The Fair

Kishore Kumar Hits — Rosemary Clooney - I Stayed Too Long At The Fair lyrics

Artist: Rosemary Clooney

album: Ballad Essentials

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 the 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 stopped
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, and so very much alone
Here in New York, I'm many worlds away
From people who are dear to me
Here in New York, I'm learning everyday
How very sad a carnival can be
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 it was easy to capture success
But now, I'd be willing to settle for less
The lights of the midway are failing above me
Have I stayed too long at the fair?
I better run home to the people who love me
For I've stayed too long at the fair
