Tom Waits - The World Keeps Turning Lyrics
On our anniversary
There'll be someone else where you used to be
The world don't care and yet it clings to me
And the moon is gold and silvery
Well, the road will turn and the road will bend
They always say he marks the sparrow's fall
How can anyone believe it all?
Well, the band has stopped playing but we keep dancing
The world keeps turning, the world keeps turning
On his hand he wore the ring of another
And the world keeps turning, the world keeps turning
We broke the bank and we tore up the place
Now the sun it falls into the sea
And around the only one for me
I was so green and the dress you wore was yellow
And the world keeps turning, the world keeps turning
The sun is down and the moon is in the meadow
And the world keeps turning, the world keeps turning
Put a hat on your head
Will you paint the whole damned town red with me?
Well, the band has stopped playing but we keep dancing
The world keeps turning, the world keeps turning
On his hand he wore the ring of another
The world keeps turning, the world keeps turning
The world keeps turning, the world keeps turning
The world keeps turning, the world keeps turning

La banda ha smesso di suonare ma noi danziamo ancora.
Toy piano, a banjo, and a stand up bass with the world's greatest voice. Pure perfection.

Thank you for this. Another unheralded genius..............

I know what you feel..
I remember the first time I heard this song many years ago watching Pollack. It takes me to a place like no other song could. Masterpiece!
Love Tom but one needs to be careful. Don't operate heavy machinery or drive while listening.
please don't drink while listening to this song.

On our anniversary
There'll be someone else where you used to be
The world don't care and yet it clings to me
And the moon is gold and silvery
Who knows where the sidewalk ends
Well, the road will turn and the road will bend
They always say he marks the sparrow's fall
How can anyone believe it all?
Well, the band has stopped playing but we keep dancing
The world keeps turning, the world keeps turning
On his hand he wore the ring of another
And the world keeps turning, the world keeps turning
We broke the bank and we tore up the place
And we disappeared oh without a trace
Now the sun it falls into the sea
And around the only one for me
I was so green and the dress you wore was yellow
And the world keeps turning, the world keeps turning
The sun is down and the moon is in the meadow
And the world keeps turning, the world keeps turning
Put a hat on your head
Will you paint the whole damned town red with me?
Well, the band has stopped playing but we keep dancing
The world keeps turning, the world keeps turning
On his hand he wore the ring of another
The world keeps turning, the world keeps turning
The world keeps turning, the world keeps turning
The world keeps turning, the world keeps turning
Catherine S. Todd THANKYOU....!!
I just watched the film "Pollock" with Ed Harris, and heard this beautiful sorrowful melodic song. Pulling my soul's heart strings as a harp. Gorgeous, tears.
A masterpiece! It breaks my heart every time I hear it.
Kralj..
@vlado bozinoski najveći
slazem se..stvarno veoma jedinstven i veoma osoben umetnik...jedan od retkih genijalaca koga mnogi ne shvataju kako treba..ili beze od toga..beze od stvarnog zivota..hm..postavlja se pitanje..sta je stvarni zivot....
@vlado bozinoski Znaš uvijek sam ga volio slušati dok bih bio potišten,nekako kad je čovjek potišten kao više razmišlja o nekim drugim stvarima koje mi se ne čine bitnima u normalnoj svakodnevnici.
When my pop passed away a few months back I sat in my living room and listened to this song on repeat for nearly a couple hours straight.
My father really took to this song after being diagnosed with terminal cancer.
i love this song, thank you
This song concludes the movie "Pollock". Haunting, haunting song. Anyone who has seen the movie will know why. Haunting, yet beautiful.
life: love and loss.
oh god dammit Tom...
This song is the ultimate story of love and loss. I love this man so much -- it's amazing how much I can relate to his music, in so many different aspects.
My god what a song. Gets me every time.
merciless
this song will be the only song that will be played at my funeral.
no speech of what a great person i was and shit.. just this song in the background and people saying goodbye to me.
not having heard this for years - i now come to it again as to a lover i haven't seen far too long...but no arms can be as embracing as this man's voice...not a piece of me is left bare....
Deeply impressing !
Thanks.
