I circle round and round again
and every time I near the end
I grasp the edge and I look down
and then I lose my nerve and then
I go around again
daylight comes another day
I drink my coffee make my eggs
another bombing on the radio
but your voice is gone so off I go
and I circle…
the people out on the street -
where do they go? how did the meet?
can they see my heart broke open wide?
is the tv on when they’re inside?
I’ve got so many sisters living through me
so many dreams coming to me
I try so hard to hold it all but then I
lose my nerve and down I fall I fall
I circle round and round again
and every time I near the end
I circle round and round again
and every time I near the end
I circle round and round again
I circle round and round again
I circle round and round and round and round
and round and round and round
again
[I…can’t…do…this]
I circle round and round again
every time I near the end
grasp the edge and I look down and then I
lose my nerve lose my nerve lose my nerve
