Circling Around The Moon Lyrics - Singles - Mellencamp John Cougar

There may come a day when you grow weary 

Troubled waters stain the paper cup 

From other venues, other voices carry 

spilled dreams soaking into thirsty dust 

Maybe then and there you'll find another 

Lover with a blank and empty heart 

filled with breath and old cells to discover 

Strength to push the seas apart 

On the day we met 

I began to want you 

On the day we met 

I began to lose you too 

Both of us circling around the moon 

Both of us circling around the moon 

There may come a day when you feel anger 

China cracked and glued by clumsy hand 

Veins of memory touching only hunger 

The heart devours what it cannot understand 

On the day we met 

I began to want you 

on the day we met 

I began to lose you too 

Both of us circling around the moon 

Both of us circling around the moon 

Maybe it was then I saw my future 

saw it as a shadow on the ground 

Beneath the earth old nails to discover 

strength to hold my body down 

On the day we met 

I began to want you 

On the day we met 

I began to lose you too 

Both of us circling around 

the moon 

On the day we met 

I began to want you, want you 

On the day we met 

I began to lose you too 

Both of us circling around the moon 

Both of us circling around the moon 

Both of us circling around the moon
