She's a mystery though I know her every name She's the one that I can't see though I see her every day She's got me running blind she's the thief s he's time Empties my pockets every day
And I can't go on dreaming of life Stuck on the outside baby I can't go on
Spinning the wheel
I can't believe it happened I lead her all along I would claim religion then I'd play her like a song She's a monument of my ambivalence I needed to be strong
And I can't on not any more life got so serious baby I can't go on
Spinning the wheel
She's the air I'm breathing she's the breath inside of me Time used to be a friend now time's a bitter enemy There used to be a hero a child could look into those eyes Now if you don't know just what you wanna be Baby you'll be left behind
I can't go on not any more life got so serious baby I can't go on
Spinning the wheel
It's no secret I'm obsessed with time Without a grip on the past your future's blind Show me a person without sense of history I'll show you a person with no ears or eyes She's the life I'm breathing she's the breath inside of me Time used to be a friend now times a bitter enemy So many choices about what you wanna be Gotta make 'em now baby or you'll be left behind
