Janis Ian
Unwinding
[Verse 1]
The hours pass, the night unwinds
You left my heart a beat behind
Time is a friend and a foe
I never dreamed you would go
Love is a clock unwinding

[Chorus]
'Round and around
'Til the feelings run down
I toss and I turn
'Til I'm all tired out
I know I told you not to worry
I'd be fine
It's just a matter of the heart
And it takes time to unwind

[Verse 2]
I saw your sister yesterday
She didn't have a lot to say
I took an apartment downtown
I'm getting used to it now
Leaving the past behind me

[Chorus]
'Round and around
'Til the feelings run down
I toss and I turn
'Til I'm all tired out
I know I told you not to worry
I'd be fine
It's just a matter of the heart
And it takes time
'Round and around
'Til the feelings run down
I toss and I turn
'Til I'm all tired out
I know I told you not to worry
I'd be fine
It's just a matter of the heart
And it takes time to unwind
