|
The big wheel keeps on turning |
|
On a simple line day by day |
|
The earth spins on its axis |
|
One man struggles while another relaxes |
|
There's a hole in my soul like a cavity |
|
Seems the world is out to gather just by gravity |
|
The wheel keeps turning the sky's rearranging |
|
Look my son the weather is changing |
|
I'd like to feel that you could be free |
|
Look up at the blue skies beneath a new tree |
|
Sometime again you'll turn green and the sea turns red |
|
My son I said the power of reflection's over my head |
|
The big wheel keeps on turning |
|
On a simple line day by day |
|
The earth spins on its axis |
|
One man struggles while another relaxes |
|
We sang about the sun and danced among the trees |
|
And we listened to the whisper of the city on the breeze |
|
Will you cry in the most in a lead-free zone |
|
Down within the shadows where the factories drone? |
|
On the surface of the wheel they build another town |
|
And so the green come tumbling down |
|
Yes close your eyes and hold me tight |
|
And I'll show you sunset sometime again |
|
The big wheel keeps on turning |
|
On a simple line day by day |
|
The earth spins on its axis |
|
One man struggles while another relaxes |
|
As a child solemn pray my hope hides in disguise |
|
While satellites and cameras watch from the skies |
|
An acid drop of rain recycled from the sea |
|
It washed away my shadow burnt a hole in me |
|
And all the king's men |
|
Cannot put it back again |
|
But the ghetto sun will nurture life |
|
And mend my soul sometime again |
|
For the big wheel keeps on turning |
|
On a simple line day by day |
|
The earth spins on its axis |
|
One man struggles while another relaxes |
|
For the big wheel keeps on turning |
|
On a simple line day by day |
|
The earth spins on its axis |
|
One man struggles while another relaxes |
|
For the big wheel keeps on turning |
|
On a simple line day by day |
|
The earth spins on its axis |
|
One man struggles while another relaxes |
