*Note: the chorus varies in length each time.
Capo 3rd
Love goes out, out like a light
Out like a flame, and you can't find it anymore
Just when you think it's lost in the rain
It comes back knocking at your door
Chorus
It's the wheel of the world turning around
It's the wheel of the world turning around
And around
God put us here on this carnival ride
We close our eyes never knowing where it'll take us next
Babies are born and at the same time
Someone's taking their last breath
Chorus
In the blink of an eye
It can change your life
And it never even slows down
It's the wheel of the world
I don't know what it is
I'm flying high
Then I'm wondering why
I'm sinking on this ship, going down
Life keeps on moving anyway
Chorus
It can open your heart
It can break you apart
And it never even slows down
Chorus
