10000 Maniacs - Circle Dream Lyrics
[ buck/drew/gustafson/augustyniak/merchant ][ percussion: paulinho da costa ]I dreamed of a circle, I dreamed of a circle round.And in that circle I had made were all the worlds unformed and unborn yet.A volume, a sphere that was the earth, that was the moon, that did revolve around my room.I dreamed of a circle, I dreamed of a circle round.And in that circle was a maze, a terrible spiral to be lost in.Blind in my fear, I was escaping just by feel.But at every turn my way was sealed.I dreamed of a circle, I dreamed of a circle round.And in that circle was a face.Her eyes looked upon me with fondness.Her warmth coming near, calling me sweetness, calling me dear.But I whispered, no, I cant rest here.I dreamed of a circle, I dreamed of a circle round.
