"In My Secret Place" lyrics

"In My Secret Place"

Time swings
Like a wrecking ball into things
Youth fades
As quickly as a hit parade
But as the days go by
In the gray world outside
Days grow on colorful trees

In my secret place
In my secret place

They'll sell
You tickets for their carousel
Don't pay
They'll get your money either way
You can go up and go down
You can go 'round and 'round
But there's a better fairground

In my secret place
In my secret place
