Spinning Lyrics

Spinning around in place

But always at distance from you

Looking in every face

But no other expression will do

And I know I'm at a window

Where all these scenes will come to pass

But it's lonely on the outside

And I just can't seem to break the glass

Dancing on my own

In an empty room with the curtains drawn

You hear the music playing

But you don't know what's going on

And I'm longing for a vision

And I can't see past these mirrored walls

But I'll stand by your decision now

And maybe someday I'll make sense of it all

So I hope you see I'm trying

Not to let my shadow fall on yours

But once you hear the silence

You'd do best to walk beyond these doors

And I hope you know I'm learning

To hide those feelings in my past

But I'll hold onto the moments with you

For whose to say how long they'll last

Turning around again

Knowing my steps can be misleading

Running into the same dead ends

While rising above the voices competing

And I know I'll find my footing

But I'm afraid I'll land too far away

I don't know what I'm losing true

But I do know what I stand to gain

So I hope you see I'm trying

Not to let my shadow fall on yours

But once you hear the silence

You'd do best to walk beyond these doors

And I hope you know I'm learning

To hide those feelings in my past

But I'll hold onto the moments with you

For whose to say how long they'll last

Walking through the days

If I stumble on something that calls you to mind

I'll know I had to let you go

But I'll never leave you behind

And it's funny how this life works

The endless cycle of endless designs

And sometimes paths they cross again

And sometimes so do lives
