Lyrics
AROUND & AROUND WE GO
BY STEPHEN T. WEEKS
(C) 1983-2005
WE WORK OUR JOBS EACH DAY
SWEAT BLOOD TO EARN OUR PAY
THEN SLOWLY FADE AWAY
INTO THE NIGHT
WE FALL IN LOVE AND THEN
WE FALL BACK OUT AGAIN
THE ACHING NEVER ENDS
TIME AFTER TIME
AND AROUND & AROUND WE GO
WHERE WE STOP NOW, NO ONE KNOWS
AROUND IN A CIRCLE, SUNSET & SUNRISE
CHASING OUR DREAMS, CHASING OUR LIVES
SHE RUNS TO CATCH HER DREAMS
I GAMBLE ON MY SCHEMES
FINANCIAL FANTASIES, ROMANTIC RUIN
WE FALL IN LOVE AND THEN
WE FALL BACK OUT AGAIN
THE ACHING NEVER ENDS
TIME AFTER TIME
AND AROUND & AROUND WE GO
WHERE WE STOP NOW, NO ONE KNOWS
AROUND IN A CIRCLE, SUNSET & SUNRISE
CHASING OUR DREAMS, CHASING OUR LIVES
WE WORRY AND SEARCH FOR THE LOVE THAT WILL GUIDE US
CALL OUT THE NAME OF THE PERSON BESIDE US
I TURN AROUND AND THE LOVE THAT I NEED ISN'T THERE, ANYWHERE
I LOVE HER AND HOLD HER, AND CRY ON HER SHOULDER
THEN HURT HER AND SCOLD HER AND SHE JUST GROWS BOLDER
I'M SUCH A FOOL THAT I DROVE HER AWAY FROM MY HEART
OH MY HEART, WAS IT COLD, FROM THE START?
WE FALL IN LOVE AND THEN
WE FALL BACK OUT AGAIN
THE ACHING NEVER ENDS
TIME AFTER TIME
AND AROUND & AROUND WE GO
WHERE WE STOP NOW, NO ONE KNOWS
AROUND IN A CIRCLE, SUNSET & SUNRISE
CHASING OUR DREAMS, CHASING OUR LIVES...
