He loves her and she loves me.
Tell me why, why, why is love a merry-go-round,
Merry-go-round, merry-go-round?

To love and not be loved in return
Is like no, no love at all.
But darling, my darling, why can`t you see
That I was meant for you
And you were meant for me?

Oh, I love you but you love him.
He loves her and she loves me.
Tell me why, why, why is love a merry-go-round,
Merry-go-round, merry-go-round?

Oh why, is love a merry-go-round?
