Around Again
— by Caroline Buchanan —
When is before again?
And again is now?
Gently the world turns
And brings us around again.
Closing my eyes,
I melt into your lead
Spinning on the turn of a song.
Twirling around the floor
No will but yours,
Suddenly I am free.
When is before again?
And again is now?
Gently the world turns
And brings us around again.
