Lyrics
Places I've been to
Places I've known
Passing milestones
with my camera
I met a girl once
She smeeled of Aubrey and June
Wearing makeup
dressed in crinoline
And I tried so hard to stay close
I don't know why I was hasty
Still my place is at home
But something tempts me away
Something tempts me away
With my camera
I saw the horses
on the merry-go-round
prancing in jewelry
on the carousal
Remembering childhood
tossing coins in a well
Memories of father
in his camoflauge
And I tried so hard to stay close
I don't know why I was hasty
Still my place is at home
But something tempts me away
Something tempts me away
With my camera
And I tried so hard to stay close
I don't know why I was hasty
Still my place is at home
But something tempts me away
Something tempts me away
With my camera
Wishing on candles
With the clowns and balloons
Raindrops on presents
And I celebrate
Places I've been to
Places I've know
Passing milestones
