Cabaret
Emmylou Harris
Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
You once dreamed of castles and merry go rounds To be Cinderella in an Alice movie Now side streets and back beats and what might have been Lead you to nowhere again and again The curtain is calling, come take your bow It's getting too late for turning back now Can you still believe that life's a cabaret And fairy tales will carry you away It's closing time and you're left on your own And only you can find a way back home You look under rainbows look over the lies You look for an answer in anyone's eyes Reach out for lovers in too many beds Reach for the needle but can't hold a thread Whiskey and roses fill your loving cup Leaving you empty when the sun's coming up And you still believe that life's a cabaret And fairy tales will carry you away When loneliness is the world you've ever known And only you can find the way back home That knight in shining armor, you know he'll never come On to the cabaret old chum Do you still believe that life's a cabaret That fairy tales will carry you away Its closing time and you're left on your own And only you can find a way back home The way back home The way back home The way back home
