by dusty springfieldThe Windmills Of Your MindRound, like a circle in a spiralLike a wheel within a wheel.Never ending or beginning, On an ever spinning wheelLike a snowball down a mountainOr a carnaval balloonLike a carousell that's turningRunning rings around the moonLike a clock whose hands are sweepingPast the minutes on it's faceAnd the world is like an appleWhirling silently in spaceLike the circles that you findIn the windmills of your mindLike a tunnel that you follow To a tunnel of it's ownDown a hollow to a cavernWhere the sun has never shoneLike a door that keeps revolvingIn a half forgotten dreamOr the ripples from a pebble Someone tosses in a stream.Like a clock whose hands are sweepingPast the minutes on it's faceAnd the world is like an appleWhirling silently in spaceLike the circles that you findIn the windmills of your mindKeys that jingle in your pocketWords that jangle your headWhy did summer go so quickly Was it something that I saidLovers walking allong the shore, Leave their footprints in the sandWas the sound of distant drumming Just the fingers of your handPictures hanging in a hallwayAnd a fragment of this songHalf remembered names and faces But to whom do they belongWhen you knew that it was overWere you suddenly awareThat the autumn leaves were turningTo the color of her hairLike a circle in a spiralLike a wheel within a wheelNever ending or beginning, On an ever spinning wheelAs the images unwindLike the circle that you findIn the windmills of your mindPictures hanging in a hallwayAnd the fragment of this songHalf remembered names and faces But to whom do they belongWhen you knew that it was overWere you suddenly awareThat the autumn leaves were turningTo the color of her hairLike a circle in a spiralLike a wheel within a wheelNever ending or beginning, On an ever spinning wheelAs the images unwindLike the circles that you findIn the windmills of your mind By Jose Feliciano
