Windmills of Your Mind by Dusty Springfield

Details

Description

Round like a circle in a spiral, like a wheel within a wheel
Never endin' or beginning on an ever spinnin' reel
Like a snowball down a mountain or a carnival balloon
Like a carousel that's turnin', runnin' rings around the moon

Like a clock whose hands are sweepin' past the minutes of its face
And the world is like an apple whirlin' silently in space
Like the circles that you find in the windmills of your mind

Like a tunnel that you follow to a tunnel of its own
Down a hollow to a cavern where the sun has never shone
Like a door that keeps revolvin' in a half forgotten dream
Or the ripples from a pebble someone tosses in a stream

Like a clock whose hands are sweepin' past the minutes of its face
And the world is like an apple whirlin' silently in space
Like the circles that you find in the windmills of your mind

Keys that jingle in your pocket, words that jangle in your head
Why did summer go so quickly? Was it somethin' that you said?
Lovers walk along a shore and leave their footprints in the sand
Is the sound of distant drummin', just the fingers of your hand

Pictures hangin' in a hallway and the fragment of a song
Half remembered names and faces, but to whom do they belong?
When you knew that it was over, you were suddenly aware
That the autumn leaves were turnin' to the colour of his hair

Like a circle in a spiral, like a wheel within a wheel
Never endin' or beginnin' on an ever spinnin' reel
As the images unwind
Like the circles that you find in the windmills of your mind
