When the dust settles down
From this merry go round
You'll ask "why?"
When there's no sleeping sound
Rest your head to my lullaby

When you fall to the ground
Do you feel your heart pounding away?
I'll be there to be found
When you turn around

Just say
Just say
"I'm alright"
"Gonna be fine"

But when the dust settles down
From this merry go round
I'll ask "why?"
When there's no sleeping sound
Who will sing me your lullaby?

When I fall to the ground
Do you know my heart's pounding away for you?
I know you won't be found
When I turn around

But I'll still say
Still say, still say
"I'm alright"
"Gonna be fine"

We are alright
Today I am with you
As you look to tomorrow

All these names that you chose
For a child I've forgotten
All these games that you've played
Now you've lost the two of us

But she's alright
She's gonna be fine
Yeah, we are alright
Today we're together
And we look to tomorrow

But when the dust settles down
From this merry go round
She'll ask "why?"
