Round and Round
Marcy
As this world spins round and round,
Does it’s spinning ever slow,
As all the fears we hold inside,
With effort never show,
At times we’d like to stop the ride,
But it’s good that we can not,
Because we control the speed of spin,
With all we never forgot.
As this world spins round and round,
Our lives unfold with pleasure and pain,
And those events clearly show us,
Each life has blue skies and rain,
At times we look to the future,
A thing we can not control,
Overlooking the here and now,
And the memories in our souls.
As this world spins round and round,
Through every day we learn,
As a candle flickers inside us,
A love that always burns,
The speed at which this world spins round,
Shouldn’t change what we find real,
Because at the beginning of every day,
We still have what we feel.
As this world spins round and round,
The days fly by so fast,
Some things remain when in the heart,
And love that’s there will last,
All the things we say and do,
Might hide the things we need,
But I don’t notice the spinning,
Since the day that love was freed.
As this world spins round and round,
We each control our ride,
And in the cycle of night and day,
With love our hearts decide,
Things are found and things are lost,
Through each heartbeat some things remain,
Life confronts us as we think,
From love we will abstain.
As this world spins round and round,
Do we hide our hearts away,
Fearful of the love that’s found,
Because we fear that it won’t stay,
We can hide behind beliefs,
Or become immobilized by our fear,
And though at times things spin so fast,
For you, love is always here.
