Round and round and round we spin To weave a wall to hem us in It won't be long, it won't be long How 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 illusion You've hidden inside Without the confusion Of findin' you're usin' The crutch of the lie To 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 long How 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 slow And wherever you go There's another beside It's so hard to say no To yourself and it shows That 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 long How 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 bend Through the time that you spend Till you turn to your eyes And you see your best friend Looking over the end And 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 long How slow and slow and slow it goes To mend the tear that always shows It won't be long, it won't be long
