Lyrics　　　 　Circle Game 　　Joni.Mitchell Yesterday a child came out to wonder Caught a dragonfly inside a jar Fearful when the sky was full of thunder And tearful at the falling of a star And the seasons they go round and round And the painted ponies go up and down Were captive on the carousel of time We cant return, we can only look behind from where we came And go round and round and round in the circle game Then the child moved ten times round the seasons Skated over ten year frozen streams Words like when youre older must appease him And promises of someday make his dreams And the seasons they go round and round And the painted ponies go up and down Were captive on the carousel of time We cant return, we can only look behind from where we came And go round and round and round in the circle game Sixteen springs and sixteen summers gone now Cart wheels cross to car wheels through the town And you tell him, "Take your time, it wont be long now" Till you drag your feet to slow those circles down And the seasons they go round and round And the painted ponies go up and down Were captive on the carousel of time We cant return, we can only look behind from where we came And go round and round and round in the circle game So the boy who dreamed tomorrow, now is twenty Though his dreams have lost some grandeur, coming true Therell be new dreams, maybe better dreams a plenty Before the last revolving year is through And the seasons they go round and round And the painted ponies go up and down Were captive on the carousel of time We cant return, we can only look behind from where we came And go round and round and round in the circle game And go ........round and round and round in the circle game 　　end　　　　　　訳詞のページに戻る
