The Windmills Of Your Mind Lyrics - Songs Of Love & Loss - Tina Arena

Like a circle in a spiral 

Like a wheel within a wheel, 

Never ending or beginning, 

On an ever-spinning reel 

Like a snowball down a mountain, 

Or a carnival balloon 

Like a carousel that's turning 

Running rings around the moon 

Like a clock whose hands are sweeping 

Past the minutes of its face 

And the world is like an apple 

Whirling silently in space 

Like the circles that you find 

In the windmills of your mind!

Songs You Love If You Love Nerds 

Every Lyric From Cardi B's Debut Album 'Invasion of Privacy' 

Every Lyric From The Weeknd's New EP 'My Dear Melancholy,' 

Like a tunnel that you follow 

To a tunnel of its own 

Down a hollow to a cavern 

Where the sun has never shone 

Like a door that keeps revolving 

In a half-forgotten dream 

Or the ripples from a pebble 

Someone tosses in a stream. 

Like a clock whose hands are sweeping 

Past the minutes of its face 

And the world is like an apple 

Whirling/Spinning silently in space 

Like the circles that you find 

In the windmills of your mind! 

Photos 

Keys that jingle in your pocket 

Words that jangle in your head 

Why did summer go so quickly? 

Was it something that you/I said? 

Lovers walk along a shore 

And leave their footprints in the sand 

Is/Was the sound of distant drumming 

Just the fingers of your hand? 

Pictures hanging in a hallway 

And/or the fragment of a song, 

half-remembered names and faces 

but to whom do they belong? 

When you knew that it was over 

You were you suddenly aware 

That the autumn leaves were turning 

To the color of his hair? 

Like a circle in a spiral 

Like a wheel within a wheel 

Never ending or beginning 

On an ever-spinning reel 

As the images unwind 

Like the circles that you find 

In the windmills of your mind!
