Windmills - Toad the Wet Sprocket

You know I've always been a little bit grounded Always thinking 'bout how to get by But ever since I met you Yeah I've been dreaming and I don't know why 'Cause when I think of you, I get a little feeling And it starts to bubble up inside And then I'm all messed up 'Cause all I see is windmills in the sky You got me acting like a schoolgirl You got me cheering like your number one fan My head's spinning like a windmill And all you have to do is touch my hand You know I lie awake at night now Just imagining how it would feel If you were lying by my side now It's the thought of you that makes you real You do, what only you can do to me, it's true You do, what only you can do, hey You know I've always been a little bit grounded Always thinking 'bout how to get by But ever since I met you Yeah I've been dreaming and I don't know why 'Cause when I think of you, I get a little feeling And it starts to bubble up inside And then I'm all messed up 'Cause all I see is windmills in the sky You got me twiddling my hair now You got me screaming when you call my name My head is spinning like a windmill And all you have to do is look my way You know I lie awake at night now Just imagining how it would feel If you were lying by my side now It's the thought of you that makes you real You do, what only you can do to me, it's true You do, what only you can do, hey You know I've always been a little bit grounded Always thinking 'bout how to get by But ever since I met you Yeah I've been dreaming and I don't know why 'Cause when I think of you, I get a little feeling And it starts to bubble up inside And then I'm all messed up 'Cause all I see is windmills in the sky Spin me, spin me round, so high off the ground You take me so high, like a windmill in the sky 'Cause all I see is windmills in the sky Spin me, spin me round, so high off the ground You take me so high, like a windmill in the sky 'Cause all I see is windmills in the sky Spin me, spin me round, so high off the ground You take me so high, like a windmill in the sky 'Cause all I see is windmills in the sky

Round 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! 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 somebody threw in a stream 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 you sometimes find in the windmills of your mind! Keys that jingle in your pocket, words that jangle in your head Why did summer go so quickly, was it something that you said? Lovers walking along a shore and leave their footprints in the sand Is the sound of distant drumming just the fingers of your hand? Pictures hanging in a hallway and 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 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 Like the circles that you find in the windmills of your mind In the windmills of your mind!

Round, 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 burning 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. Like a tunnel that you follow To a tunnel of it's 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 silently in space Like the circles that you find In the windmills of your mind. Keys that jingle in your pocket Words that jangle in your head Why did summer go so quickly Was it something that you said Lovers walk along the shore Andeave their footprints in the sand Is the sound of distant drumming Just the fingers of your hand Pictures hanging in a hallway And a fragment of this song Half-remembered names and faces But to whom do they belong When you knew that it was over Were you suddenly aware That the autumn leaves were turning To the color of her 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. Pictures hanging in a hallway And the fragment of this song Half-remembered names and faces But to whom do they belong When you knew that it was over Were you suddenly aware That the autumn leaves were turning To the color of her 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.

Round like a circle in a spiral Like a wheel within a wheel Never ending on 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 on 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 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 on 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 Keys that jingle in your pocket Words that jangle in your head Why did summer go so quickly?

Are you given vision, are you second sight? Are you older than your life? Eighty days of sorrow, endless more in sight Still you, child, burn bright And you see me crying again And you hold out your little hand Led me shaking to his room I thought I'd never see again Close the door behind you, turning out the light Press a flashlight up against the wall You say "This is how we knew him In a little egg It opened up and this is daddy now." Now you're stepping back towards me Till the room is bathing in light And the answer there before me There's no ending when we die Are you sleeping here beside me? Are you shining bright as the sky? Are you breathing now inside me? There's no ending when we die

I find my brother in there Deep in my heart I find my brother in there Hold in my arms I love you And if I seem too quiet now There are no words To tell you how I love you I often feel Like the prodigal son Take all I need Giving back none Our beauty shows In such different ways You're like the light behind the fog So soft But still you burn my eyes away I find my brother in there Deep in my heart I find my brother in there Hold in my arms I love you And if I seem too quiet now There are no words to show you how I love you So much has changed And so much has happened these years But still I find that you Are waiting here We have a bond That nothing can change And still I find A peace of mind Whenever I hear your name And if I seem too quiet now There are no words to show you how I love you

Been waiting to find You could've been happier given the time If he'd make up his mind You'd give yourself to anybody Who would cross that line And it was never a question He was crowing for repair You'd give him love and affection You couldn't keep him there Get over, regrets While you were sleeping with the angels He was under the bed And the more skin that you shed The more that the air in your throat will linger When you call him your friend And it was never a question He was crowing for repair You'd give him love and affection You couldn't keep him there Staring at a cold little hand Reading fault lines of a shell of a man You were waiting for a word from above Wouldn't you know it? No, answer ever did come And it was never a question You were crowing for repair You'd give him love and affection You couldn't keep him there And it was never a question You were crowing for repair You'd give him love and affection You couldn't keep him there

Here I need your help Deliver me from myself Take me where i'm wanted Or make me someone else I don't care what they said Forget about the things you read It was something you'll never know Never see Never understand Just leave it now, if you can... Tell me, when they come for you Who will there be to speak? And when they come for you Who will there be left to speak for you? Final Solutions back in style We are the ones, letting it ride I never dreamed we were so blind Amnesia in comfort So unkind Tell me when they come for you Who will there be to speak? And when they come for you Who will there be left to speak for you?

Shame doesn't become you There are no mistakes in the final view No blame, how could it be so wrong That your heart was braver than your will was strong For every path you follow there's another left behind Every door you don't kick open there's a million more to try And for everything you've taught me here's the one I've learned the best There is nothing but the moment Don't you waste it on regret I'll go, but who will you have to be Will you just get by or get what you need Just know that I don't need to fit in But is there room for you in your life with him? For every path you follow there's another left behind Every door you don't kick open there's a million more to try And for everything you've taught me here's the one I've learned the best There is nothing but the moment Don't you waste it on regret It's out of my hands, out of my hands But I miss my friend, I miss my friend So this is the price of honesty But I'm not sorry For every path you follow there's another left behind Every door you don't kick open there's a million more to try And for everything you've taught me here's the one I've learned the best There is nothing but the moment Don't you waste it on regret The moment is happening now The moment is passing The moment is happening now The moment is passing
