Round like a circle in a spiral
Like a wheel within a wheel

Never ending or beginning

On an ever spinning reel
Like a snowball down a mountain
Or a carnival balloon
Like a carousel thafs turning
Running rings around the moon
Like a clock
Whose hands are spinning
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 has never shown
Like a door that keeps revolving
In a haIf-forgotten dream
Or the ripples from a pebble
Someone tosses in a stream
Like a clock
Whose hands are spinning
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
Keys thatjingle in your pocket
Words thatjangle in your head
Why did summer go so quickly?
Was it something that you said?
Lovers walk along the shore
And leave
Their footprints in the sand
Is the sound of distant drumming
Just the fingers of your hand?
Pictures hanging in a hallway
And the fragment of a song
Half remembered names and faces
But to whom do they belong?
When you knew that it was over
You were suddenly aware
That the autumn leaves were turning
To the color of her hair
Like a circle in a spiral
Like a wheel within a wheel

Never ending or beginning

On an ever spinning reel
As the images unwind
Like the circles that you fmd

In the windmills of your mind
