(Have I Stayed) Too Long At the Fair? (Live) - Barbra Streisand

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?
