La Giostra Songtext
von LAPP

The newborn′s fast asleep
In the caravan 'neath the whirlin′ carousel
Florin will wash his clothes in the river
And take the circus to Esperia the next day
Davide, he's on the music man
For a song he hasn't heard since he was a child
It echoes round the mountain cove
Of where this little town belongs

And do you search for something more?
Something other than this?
But what more could,
Oh, what more could be mine?
Oh, could be mine?
As we spin round again
Nothing more could be mine


Families play
You know I find it hard to picture
Having one of my own
My mother, my father, my brother
Their love overwhelms me
Oh, I′m scared it′s something
I could only ever feign
Sometimes I can't even
I can′t even stand up straight
Like every breath is one step closer to death
I stand alone away from the festa
And share all my secrets with Selvacava

And do you search for something more?
Something other than this?
But what more could
Oh, what more could be mine?
Oh, could be mine?
As we spin round again
Nothing more could ever be mine

The stars we sleep below
Maybe they're just best left alone
As if I were to pluck one out of the sky
Then nothing more could ever be found
We′re frozen by the carousel
She's smiling, watching all the kids twirlin′ around
Every time I try to reach out
It always seems to slip away somehow
