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 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 besides

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
