Carnival Songtext
von Sandy Denny

The summertime′s escaping
And the carnival's away
And the sunshine is awaiting
For another sunny day
Breakers whisper
To the shells upon the shore
And hear the seagulls
They cry for more
And hear the gulls
They cry for more


Good day to you sweet autumn
So gently you appear
Why I never even realized
Those rustic times were near
The moment′s changing
From a dusty green to gold
The summer fair
She has grown old
The summer fair
She has grown old

And away in the blue
Over skies and over the trees
How the carnival flies
On the wings of a breeze
You've had your time
And now it's mine for me to go
These colder days
They move too slow
These older days
They move too slow

So the summertime
Is leaving and the carnival′s away
So the sunshine
Is reliving us on all our sunny days
But I′ll be waiting
For to greet your fleeting call


So come back soon
The carnival
Come back soon
The carnival
Come back soon
Come back soon
Come back soon
Come back soon

Come back soon
Come back soon
Come back soon
Come back soon
