Roundabout

Lately I've been thinking
Life is like a roundabout
Going round in circles
Can't find the exit out...

All too many choices
Where to go and how to be
I can't commit to anything
I'm my own worst enemy...

Chorus:

Round and round and round and round
So bored and slow
Waiting for a sign to show me
Where I ought to go

Love love love love love love love
So sweet and warm
Love's the only road I know
That will take me home

You had friends to talk to
You had me to love
You had such a good good life
But it wasn't quite enough...

So you went and took your own life
Now there's so little that I know
So many questions so much pain
I don't know where to go...

Chorus:

Round and round and round and round
So shy and slow
Thinking this is it and then -
Another low!

Love love love love love love love
So strong and warm
Love's the only thing I know
That will guide you home

We think we're all so liberated
But that is just a trick
The media and the industry
Have made us pretty sick

Trying to make us all believe
We need more to make us whole
But shopping trips and popping pills
Are stealing our soul

Chorus:

Round and round and round and round
So blind and fast
Missing all the exits
To something that could last

Love love love love love love love
So sweet and warm
Love's the only road I know
That will take us home
