He is the match that strikes my flame, Am F
He is my shelter whenever it rains. Am FG
I am his shoulder when he needs my strength, Am F
I am his truth when all else is fake. Am FG

CHORUS 2 C G Am E F
And here we go again on this carousel,
We go up and down.

We go round and round and round,

VERSE 2
Sometimes I think he feels pity for me. Am F
He takes my love, just because it is free. Am FG
Why must he go when he leaves every night? Am F
Why can’t our love just make everything right? Am FG

CHORUS 2 REPEAT C G Am E F

Our love’s like a diamond left in the rough, E F
It’s like a flower left out of the sun. C G
I tell myself that it is enough, E F
This is the price of our love. _____ C G

VERSE 3
Sometimes I feel like a bird in a cage, Am F
Don’t think that this will get better with age. Am FG
Why am I not all that you need? Am F
If I am not, then please set me free. Am FG
