|
Round like a circle in a spiral |
|
Like a wheel within a wheel |
|
Neverending or beginning on an ever spinning reel |
|
Like a snowball down a mountain |
|
Or a carnival blue like a carousel thats turning |
|
And the rings around the moon |
|
Or the clock whose hands are sweeping past the minutes of its face |
|
And the world is like an apple whirling silently in space |
|
Like the circles that you find |
|
In the windmills of your mind |
|
Like a tunnel that you follow to a tunnel of its own |
|
Down a hollow to a cavern where the sun is never shown |
|
Like a door that keeps revolving in a high forgotten dream |
|
Like the ripples from a pebble someone tosses in a stream |
|
Like a clock whose hands are sweeping past the minutes of its face |
|
And the world is like an apple whirling silently in space |
|
Like the circles that you find |
|
In the windmills of your mind |
|
Hes reaching around your pocket theres a jangle in your head |
|
Why did summer go so quickly was it something that she said |
|
Love is walking on the shoal leaving footprints in the sand |
|
Was the sound of distant drumming just the feelings of your hand |
|
Which is hanging in a hallway or the fragment of a song |
|
Ive remembered names and faces but to whom do they belong |
|
And you knew that it was over when you sent me away |
|
But the autumn leaves were turning to the color of your hair |
|
Like a circle in a spiral |
|
Like a wheel within a wheel |
|
Neverending or beginning on an ever spinning reel |
|
As the images unwind |
|
Like the circles that you find |
|
In the windmills of your mind |
