Maureen McGovern - The Windmills Of Your Mind Lyrics
Like a circle in a spiral
Like a wheel within a wheel
Never ending or beginning in an ever spinning reel
Like a snowball down a mountain
Or a carnival balloon
Like a clock whose hands are sweeping past the minutes of its face
The world is like an apple whirling silently in space
Like the circles that you find
In the windmills of your mind
Like a tunnel you discover has a tunnel of its own
From a hollow to a cavern where the sun has never shone
Like a door that keeps revolving in a half forgotten dream
Or the ripples from a pebble
Like a clock whose hands are sweeping...
Keys that jingle in your pocket, words that jangle in your head
Why did summer go so quickly, was it something that you said?
Lovers walk along the shore and leave their footprints in the sand
Is the sound of distant drumming just the fingers of your hand?
Pictures hanging in the hallway and the fragment of this song
Half remembered names and faces but to whom do they belong?
When you knew that it was over, you were suddenly aware
That the autumn leaves were turning to the color of her hair
When you knew that it was over, in the autumn of goodbyes
For a moment you could not recall the color of his eyes
Like a circle in a spiral, like a wheel within a wheel
Never ending or beginning on an ever spinning reel
As the images unwind, like the circles that you find
In the windmills of your mind

something to listen to and see and think about
Here is her original version of this song from her album An Academy Award Performance from 1975. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u7jbuErRX78 SO much better than this version
I love Maureen McGovern's "There's Got To Be A Morning After" ~ it's wonderful.
I appreciate that she did this song, but for me, no one will ever beat Dusty Springfield's version.
"Dusty"
"Springfield"
What a name.
@ydoyou wannano There was this lady up the street named...Dusty Beaver.
!!!!!!!!!
I'm very excited about your slide show, every single lyric line is in context with your using pic. This means a lot of work to search and to find the right image, sometimes you was very creative to show the right impression, love it :)
LOL, no I can't imagine that :) I'm with you on the windmills. The modern ones aren't romantic at all!
You've excelled yourself this time, LOVE IT, LOVE IT, LOVE IT! Thanks for always brightening up my day :)
