I stayed too long at the fair

I Wanted the Music to Play On Forever
Have I Stayed Too Long At the Fair?
I Wanted the Clown to Be Constantly Clever
Have I Stayed Too Long At the Fair?
I Bought Me Blue Ribbons to Tie Up My Hair,
But I Couldn't Find Anybody to Care
The Merry-go-round Is Beginning to Taunt Now
Have I Stayed Too Long At the Fair?
The Music Has Stop and the Children Must Go Now
Have I Stayed Too Long At the Fair?
Oh, Mother Dear, I Know You're Very Proud,
Your Little Girl in Gingham Is So Far Above the Crowd
No, Daddy Dear, You Never Could Have Known
That I Would Be Successful, Yet So Very Much Alone...
I Wanted to Live in a Carnival City,
With Laughter and Love Everywhere
I Wanted My Friends to Be Thrilling and Witty,
I Wanted Somebody to Care
I Found My Blue Ribbons All Shiny and New
But Now I Discover Them no Longer Blue...
The Merry-go-round Is Beginning to Taunt Me,
Have I Stayed Too Long At the Fair?
There's Nothing to Win
And There's no One to Want Me
Have I Stayed Too Long At the Fair?
