World Spins Madly On

As I was driving to Franklin yesterday, a song I'd never heard came on the radio...."World Spins Madly On" by The Weepies.


It's rare that a song literally stops me in my tracks.  This one did.  I wish I could play it for you here...go to Itunes to hear :>)  *Note: It is a very melancholy song.  I'm not even feeling especially melancholy right now, I just loved the words and the feel of the music - Don't worry :>)


World Spins Madly On

Woke up and wished that I was dead
With an aching in my head
I lay motionless in bed

I thought of you and where you'd gone
Let the world spin madly on

And everything that I said I'd do
Like make the world brand new
Take the time for you

I just got lost and slept right through the dawn
And the world spins madly on

I let the day go by
I always say goodbye
I watch the stars from my windowsill
The whole world is moving and I'm standing still

Woke up and wished that I was dead
With an aching in my head
I lay motionless in bed

The night is here, the day is gone
And the world spins madly on

Thought of you and where you'd gone
And the world spins madly on
And the world spins madly on
And the world spins madly on
and on
and on
and on
