Tim O’Brien
Circles Around You
There in the paper as plain as day I saw
Your face was smilin' and lookin' my way it said
You beat the odds in some game
Five thousand dollars and fame
I thought how you looked the same
Can't lose the sight of you, can't lose the sound, it's just
Like some bad penny that keeps comin' around, I think
We've been three years now apart
I've tried to make a new start
But you keep tuggin' my heart
Chorus
I'm runnin' in circles around you
I just can't let go of the past
I'm wrappin' my world all around you
Don't know if I'll ever let go
I'm wrappin' my dreams all around you
I need you much more than you know
What fills the hours, what fills your days are you
Lost here like I am just makin' your way down some
Street in this cold lonely town
Too proud to turn us around
Or is there some new one you've found
Chorus
