[ar:sting] |
[00:03.87] |
windmills of your mind |
[00:08.04] |
Sting |
[00:16.76] |
Round, |
[00:17.41] |
Like a circle in a spiral |
[00:20.17] |
Like a wheel within a wheel |
[00:22.84] |
Never ending or beginning |
[00:24.10] |
On an ever-spinning reel |
[00:27.78] |
Like a snowball down a mountain |
[00:30.70] |
Or a carnival balloon |
[00:31.86] |
Like a carousel that's turning |
[00:36.17] |
Running rings around the moon |
[00:38.96] |
Like a clock whose hands are sweeping |
[00:41.68] |
Past the minutes on its face |
[00:44.31] |
And the world is like an apple |
[00:46.34] |
Whirling silently in space |
[00:49.52] |
Like the circles that you find |
[00:52.73] |
In the windmills of your mind |
[01:00.52] |
Like a tunnel that you follow |
[01:03.16] |
To a tunnel of its own |
[01:05.82] |
Down a hollow to a cavern |
[01:08.83] |
Where the sun has never shone |
[01:11.08] |
Like a door that keeps revolving |
[01:13.80] |
In a half-forgotten dream |
[01:16.48] |
Like the ripples from a pebble |
[01:19.19] |
Someone tosses in a stream |
[01:22.00] |
Like a clock whose hands are sweeping |
[01:24.78] |
Past the minutes on its face |
[01:27.52] |
And the world is like an apple |
[01:30.10] |
Whirling silently in space |
[01:32.77] |
Like the circles that you find |
[01:35.83] |
In the windmills of your mind |
[01:43.84] |
Keys that jingle in your pocket |
[01:46.18] |
Words that jangle in your head |
[01:48.76] |
Why did summer go so quickly? |
[01:51.54] |
Was it something that I said? |
[01:54.11] |
Lovers walk along a shore |
[01:56.57] |
And leave their footprints in the sand |
[01:59.42] |
Was the sound of distant drumming |
[02:02.17] |
Just the fingers of your hand? |
[02:04.85] |
Pictures hanging in a hallway |
[02:07.48] |
Or the fragment of a song |
[02:10.28] |
Half-remembered names and faces |
[02:12.86] |
But to whom do they belong? |
[02:15.63] |
When you knew that it was over |
[02:18.56] |
Were you suddenly aware |
[02:21.26] |
That the autumn leaves were turning |
[02:24.41] |
To the colour of her hair? |
[02:26.83] |
Like a circle in a spiral |
[02:29.28] |
Like a wheel within a wheel |
[02:32.03] |
Never ending or beginning |
[02:33.43] |
On an ever-spinning reel |
[02:37.33] |
As the images unwind |
[02:40.17] |
Like the circles that you find |
[02:42.85] |
In the windmills of your mind |
[02:56.04] |
Pictures hanging in a hallway |
[02:59.42] |
Or the fragment of a song |
[03:01.67] |
Half-remembered names and faces |
[03:04.39] |
But to whom do they belong? |
[03:06.93] |
When you knew that it was over |
[03:09.83] |
Were you suddenly aware |
[03:12.52] |
That the autumn leaves were turning |
[03:15.21] |
To the colour of her hair? |
[03:17.56] |
Like a circle in a spiral |
[03:20.56] |
Like a wheel within a wheel |
[03:23.24] |
Never ending or beginning |
[03:25.60] |
On an ever-spinning reel |
[03:28.35] |
As the images unwind |
[03:31.24] |
Like the circles that you find |
[03:34.43] |
In the windmills of your mind |
