Circle Of Quiet Lyrics - Over The Rhine

Maybe you can tell my why i'm prone to wander 

i'm like a gypsy to the bone 

every time i hear the rain amid the thunder 

i want to run outside and shed my clothes 

but i want to stay with you 

long enough to love you right 

and i want to say to you 

i love the patience in your eyes 

here i am standing in a circle of quiet 

where a truce is tactily observed 

standing in a circle of quiet 

waiting for the world to turn 

waiting for the world to turn 

waiting for the world to turn 

and a hundred days and night could find me scattered 

all around the world without a name 

but you're more than just a feather in my hat 

more than just a fetter on my frame 

when I look up in the sky at night 

i want to go out and chase the stars 

but like the catcher in the rye 

i want to stay where you are 

there is no shadow of turning with thee 

there is no shadow of turning
