Noon siesta floating off the radio
|
May has come to rescue Central Park
|
Watch the kids revive the sounds of Mexico
|
It gives them a spark and something to breathe
|
The beauty of everything unseen
|
|
The figure of eight goes 'round
|
Leaves you alive where you started
|
It's good to be up when you're down
|
So what are you waiting for
|
If all of your past is now
|
The figure of eight, the figure of eight goes around
|
|
These are days you read about in magazines
|
These are times they used to call a book
|
Every option sitting here in front of me
|
Could give me a look, sweet on the vine
|
I take them back home and make them mine
|
|
The figure of eight goes 'round...
|
|
In a maze of broken dreams
|
It is all just what it seems
|
And a sweet, forgotten sound
|
Goes around
|
|
The figure of eight goes 'round...
|
