Round and round and round we spin,
|
To weave a wall to hem us in,
|
It won't be long, it won't be long
|
How slow and slow and slow it goes,
|
To mend the tear that always shows.
|
It won't be long, it won't be long.
|
It's hard enough losin'
|
the paper illusion
|
you've hidden inside,
|
Without the confusion
|
of findin' you're usin'
|
the crutch of the lie
|
To shelter your pride when you cry.
|
Round and round and round we spin,
|
To weave a wall to hem us in,
|
It won't be long, it won't be long
|
How slow and slow and slow it goes,
|
To mend the tear that always shows.
|
It won't be long, it won't be long.
|
Now you're movin' too slow
|
and wherever you go
|
there's another beside.
|
It's so hard to say no
|
to yourself and it shows
|
that you're losing inside,
|
When you step on your pride and you cry.
|
Round and round and round we spin,
|
To weave a wall to hem us in,
|
It won't be long, it won't be long
|
How slow and slow and slow it goes,
|
To mend the tear that always shows.
|
It won't be long, it won't be long.
|
How the hours will bend
|
through the time that you spend
|
till you turn to your eyes,
|
And you see your best friend
|
looking over the end
|
and you turn to see why,
|
And he looks in your eyes and he cries.
|
Round and round and round we spin,
|
To weave a wall to hem us in,
|
It won't be long, it won't be long
|
How slow and slow and slow it goes,
|
To mend the tear that always shows.
|
It won't be long, it won't be long.
