Stewart, John - The Spinnin' Of The World Lyrics






Is it wrong to be so much in love with a girl
That you can't tell her voice from the spinnin' of the world?

I'm gone, I can fly, like a comet on the sky
Looking for the shelter of a hurricane's eye
If I turn the corner and your face, it isn't there
I'll come runnin' back tomorrow and go searchin' everywhere

Is it wrong to be so much in love with a girl
That you can't tell her voice from the spinnin' of the world?

The sunset is red, I remember what you said
There's no rest for the weary, I'd be better off dead
I cannot find any words that will rhyme
My eyes, they can see, but it feels like I'm blind

Is it wrong to be so much in love with a girl
That you can't tell her voice from the spinnin' of the world?
Is it wrong to be so much in love with a girl
That you can't tell her voice from the spinnin' of the world?
Is it wrong to be so much in love with a girl
That you can't tell her voice from the spinnin' of the world?

  9. A.... E....

    Lindsey cute as ever.......love him and always will.

  23. B.... w....

    I love this song

  24. K.... I....

    I was surprised when Linsey came out on stage, he looked so small. But I guess next to Stevie everybody looks big.

  25. s.... ....

    They both sound awesome :) R.I.P John Stewart.

  26. B.... ....

    Still hard for me to accept that John is gone now.....

  27. B.... B....

    OMG, I was there. So young. Now John is dead, and so is my husband, the man who produced this event. Hard to watch but impossible to resist. Tommy Smothers now lives down the road from me in Sonoma. Ain't life peculiar?

  28. L.... B....

    CONGRATS!! (:

  29. J.... W....

    I saw this when it originally aired on PBS. Tommy Smothers was hilarious. Would love to see this in its entirety.

  30. A.... G....

    I love Lindsey!!!!!

  31. R.... ....

    Thanks for posting this. A great tune, featured on "Bombs away..." Wish that an B-Nicks would be re-released as remastered versions.

  32. N.... N....

    This song was originally on the Kingston Trio album CHILDREN OF THE MORNING. For all you John Stewart fans, it's essentially a Stewart album (he wrote 10 of the 12 songs on it) with Bob Shane and Nick Reynolds backing him up.

  33. B.... R....

    @foppa123 Bombs Away Dream Babies is an amazing album. It's one of those albums that I keep going back to over and over along with ELO's Out of The Blue, Gorillaz's Demon Days, Black Flag's Damaged and The Beach Boys' Pet Sounds. Just a well made album.

  34. B.... R....

    I remember watching this when it originally aired on WQED. Great stuff. Thanks for posting this.

  35. 3.... ....

    In the early 8O's it was hard in France to see such a concert.I got a recording from TV in NTSC.I asked a company to transcode it but it was very very expensive;.. So an employee did me a favor and I understand he filmed the screen with a camcorder without telling his boss so I first saw the document almost witout any colours.LMuch later of course I bought the DVD in full colours.Great memories Thanks for posting.

  36. O.... ....

    These guys were great together.

  37. j.... ....

    Well there is not much to say about this song except....DAMN. This is what music is all about. Lindsey learns from John's records and becomes a star. Then he goes back and pays back John by producing John's biggest hit. I am a huge John fan as well as Fleetwood Mac. With Lindsey and Stevie singing on Gold it sounded like a Fleetwood Mac song. It reminds me of Jerry Garcia and his work with David Grisman. Thanks Lindsey. RIP Picker.

  38. D.... T....

    First saw this years ago, never forgot it. Great to see it again. Only recently realized Lindsey is wearing the striped shirt in tribute to the Trio.

  40. L.... B....

    Sorry to hear that you lost that Mick photo. Hope it turns up for you. (:

  41. L.... B....

    Thanks for the info.!! I would be TOTALLY starstruck if I met Lindsey!! I have met a few famous people (Barbara Eden, Paula Abdul, etc...) in the past too while working at a record store in Los Angeles many years ago. However, it was no big deal for me though. The only person on this planet that would make my heart skip a beat, etc... is Lindsey. (:

  42. L.... B....

    By the way, how did you ever manage to meet him? I've been trying for many years. (:

  43. L.... B....

    Thanks a bunch!! I really love this one too!! Glad that you can truly appreciate it like me. (:

  44. L.... B....

    You're welcome. Thanks for your great comment!! You are VERY lucky to have met Lindsey!! I'm jelaous. By the way, I heard he was quiet too, but very nice and down to earth. (:

  45. c.... ....

    I'm a John Stewart fan from WAY back in the Trio days. (I'm 58.) Saw him do the Phoenix Concerts live. Such a shame he's gone. But no matter how many times I watch this particular performance (I have the DVD), I get goose bumps. What an incredible duet.

  46. L.... B....

    Glad that you love this!! Thanks for commenting!! (:

  47. L.... B....

    Thanks!! Glad that you enjoyed this one!! (:

  48. X.... ....

  49. L.... B....

    You're VERY welcome. Thank you for your comment!! (:
