Natalie Merchant - Carnival [Live/Storytellers] lyric
Ringtone: Send Carnival [Live/Storytellers] Ringtone to your Cell Phone!
Well, I've walked these streets
A virtual stage it seemed to me
Makeup on their faces
Actors took their places next to me
I've walked these streets
In a carnival of sights to see
All the cheap thrill-seekers
The vendors and the dealers
They crowded around me
Have I been blind
Have I been lost inside
Myself and my own mind
Hypnotized, mesmerized
By what my eyes have seen
I've walked these streets
In a spectacle of wealth and poverty
In the diamond market
The scarlet welcome carpet
That they just rolled out for me
And I've walked these streets
In the madhouse asylum they can be
Where a wild-eyed mystic prophet
On a traffic island stopped
And he raved of saving me
Have I been blind
Have I been lost inside
Myself and my own mind
Hypnotized, mesmerized
By what my eyes have seen
Have I been wrong
Or have I been wise to shut
My eyes and play along
Hypnotized, paralyzed
By what my eyes have found
By what my eyes have seen
By what they have seen
Have I been blind
Have I been lost
(Have I been lost)
Have I been wise
Or have been weak
Have I been strong
(Have I been strong)
Have I been hypnotized and mesmerized
By what my eyes have found
By what my eyes have found
In that, that great street carnival
Have I been blind
Have I been lost
(Have I been lost)
Have I been wise
Have been weak
Have I been strong
(Have I been strong)
Have I been hypnotized, mesmerized
By what my eyes have found
By what my eyes have found
In that great street carnival, in that carnival
