Lyrics: The Spinnin' Of The World

(John Stewart)

[Chorus:]
Is it wrong to be so much in love with a girl that you can't tell her voice from the spinnin' of the world.

I am gone. I can fly like a comet on the sky. I'm a-lookin' for the shelter of a hurricane's eye.
If I turn the corner and your face, it isn't there, I'll come runnin' back tomorrow and go searchin' everywhere.

[Chorus]

The sunset is red. I remember what they said. There's no rest for the weary. I'd be better off dead.
I cannot find any words for my mind. My eyes, they can see, but it feels like I'm blind.

[Chorus]

I am gone. I can fly as a comet on the sky. I'm a-lookin' for the shelter of a hurricane's eye
If I turn the corner and your face, it isn't there, I'll come runnin' back tomorrow and go searchin' everywhere.

[Chorus 2x]
