I see old friends
Gathered 'round the village,
I see a million dollars
and I watched it burn.
And the town
Where I'm living
Tells a story
'Fore I say goodbye.
I sit down
Watching all the faces.
Maybe I'll remember
Who they are.
And the world
She keeps on spinning
She keeps on spinning
She keeps on spinning
The good times are ending
For my own sake
For those of all of my friends.
And the good times are ending
For my own sake
For those of all of my friends.
There's a hand
Knocking at my window.
Open fields are burning
Beneath the sky.
So for now,
I'll do my best to think up
A better way to tell you
That I'm moving on.
And in time
When the journey's over
I'll send this letter
To your door
And the world
She keeps on spinning
She keeps on spinning
She keeps on spinning.
The good times are ending
For my own sake
For those of all of my friends.
And the good times are ending
For my own sake
For those of all of my friends.
