En Route to the Fair
How Does Your World Rotate?
*like a Tilt-a-Whirl
(and I've had too much cotton candy)
Could This Be Fate?
*i could be your girl
(or whatever assignment comes in handy)
Would You Meet Me at the Fair?
*yes! depending on the weather
(unless i meet a pie man with a plan)
You Would Leave Me Stranded There?
*don't turn love into a belt of leather
(I'm looking for a patient man)
But What if I Was on the Ferris Wheel?
*anything can happen along the road
(but I would try to bring you a balloon)
Now I'm Thinking I've Lost All Appeal...
*don't try to sell me! I'm sold!
(and eating my heart out with a spoon)
So We're Okay?
*we better be better than THAT
(aren't you catchin' my carnival fever???)
I GUESS I'm Scared You'll Lose Your Way
*I'll be guided by my inner brat
(she hopes you'll never leave her)
I Wouldn't! I Couldn't! I Love Her Song!
*good! then she won't bite
(right now she's jumping up with glee)
But, Really, Please Don't Take Too Long
*what if i feel like takin' all night?
(now I'm being cheeky, see)
The Stars Are Out and the Butterflies Are In
*oh, yes! oh, yum!
(now I know you're my potential mate)
Then Come to Me and Let the Feast Begin
*eat now, if you're hungry, but save me some
(and keep it on a clean blue plate)
What if I Don't Want to Start Without You?
*then I'll walk faster
(and not stop for any random temptation)
No More Hoops For Me to Jump Through?
*love is a fickle disaster
(but with you I only sense jubilation)
