Round & Round (It Won't Be Long)
Round and round and round we spin,To weave a wall to hem us in,It won't be long, it won't be longHow 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 illusionyou've hidden inside,Without the confusionof findin' you're usin'the crutch of the lieTo 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 longHow 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 slowand wherever you gothere's another beside.It's so hard to say noto yourself and it showsthat 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 longHow 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 bendthrough the time that you spendtill you turn to your eyes,And you see your best friendlooking over the endand 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 longHow slow and slow and slow it goes,To mend the tear that always shows.It won't be long, it won't be long.
