spinning (4:41)
I had this little tape recorder
I used to go down to the coffee shop
Record people, play it back later
Was that wrong?
You spun around
You turned me on
You left me on
And then you left
Me here
Spinning
Spinning
Like an old jazz record
Like a Waring blender
On a merry go round
In the galaxy
You spun around
You turned me on
You left me on
And then you left
Me here
Spinning
Spinning
On a walk through the woods one day
I heard a bird that sounded just like Charlie Parker
I was amazed
But I didn’t have my recorder with me
So I just stood there and listened
Like a cyclone storming
Like a snail shell forming
On an orbiting ball
Round a yellow star
You spun around
You turned me on
You left me on
And then you left
Me here
Spinning
Spinning
Spinning
Spinning
On the van ride home I was tired and sad
And then you reached across and you grabbed my hand
And all my pain just flew away
And i felt warm
And held
