Tumbling Ball Lyrics - Manfred Mann

Maybe I'll remember 

The old house standing on the avenue 

Till the day I die 

Maybe I'll remember 

The kids coming home from the playground 

Sand in their shoes and their mother's eyes 

Surely I'll recall the day in my life 

When I looked in the eyes of a woman 

And I knew right then and there that's my wife 

And the world keeps turning 

Like a big blue tumbling ball 

And the times that you spend 

With the ones you love just seem so small 

Am I just a drop in the ocean after all 

Maybe I will always 

Think of myself as a young man 

Holding both hands to the rod and the reel 

Maybe I will always 

Remember the day dad passed away 

And I still don't know how to feel 

There's nothing I love more than my family 

When we all get to heaven 

I hope for a minute 

That they still remember me... 

And the world keeps turning 

Like a big blue tumbling ball 

And the times that you spend 

With the ones you love just seem so small 

And the world keeps spinning 

Like a big blue tumbling ball 

And it's hard to believe 

That you ever really played a part at all 

Am I just a drop in the ocean after all 

And the world keeps spinning 

Like a big blue tumbling ball 

And the world keeps spinning 

Like a big blue tumbling ball 

And it's hard to believe 

That you ever really played a part at all 

Am I just a drop in the ocean after all
