Windmills Of Your Mind – Sting (originally by Noel Harrison)By Round, like a circle in a spiralLike a wheel within a wheelNever ending or beginningOn an ever spinning reelLike a snowball down a mountainOr a carnival balloonLike a carousel that’s turningRunning rings around the moonLike a clock whose hands are sweepingPast the minutes on it’s faceAnd the world is like an appleWhirling silently in spaceLike the circles that you findIn the windmills of your mindLike a tunnel that you followTo a tunnel of it’s ownDown a hollow to a cavernWhere the sun has never shoneLike a door that keeps revolvingIn a half forgotten dreamOr the ripples from a pebbleSomeone tosses in a streamLike a clock whose hands are sweepingPast the minutes on it’s faceAnd the world is like an appleWhirling silently in spaceLike the circles that you findIn the windmills of your mindKeys that jingle in your pocketWords that jangle in your headWhy did summer go so quicklyWas it something that you said?Lovers walking along the shoreLeave their footprints in the sandWas the sound of distant drummingJust the fingers of your hand?Pictures hanging in a hallwayAnd a fragment of this songHalf remembered names and facesBut to whom do they belong?When you knew that it was overWere you suddenly awareThat the autumn leaves were turningTo the color of her hairLike a circle in a spiralLike a wheel within a wheelNever ending or beginningOn an ever spinning reelAs the images unwindLike the circles that you findIn the windmills of your mindPictures hanging in a hallwayAnd the fragment of this songHalf remembered names and facesBut to whom do they belongWhen you knew that it was overWere you suddenly awareThat the autumn leaves were turningTo the color of her hairLike a circle in a spiralLike a wheel within a wheelNever ending or beginningOn an ever spinning reelAs the images unwindLike the circles that you findIn the windmills of your mind www.pillowlyrics.com419786497975 88k 20
