Procol Harum - Perpetual Motion Lyrics
(g.brooker / k.reid / m.noble)Rings around the crescent moonPassions rise from basement roomsFountains play and worlds collideWe gently swing and sway from side to sideDancers in perpetual motionSlip an sliding across the floorShips our on a moonlit oceanSailin tward a distant shoreStar-crossed lovers they spoon and swimThe laughing gods they just reel them inHostages theyre tempting fateSee them wait down on the line to take the baitDancers in perpetual motionSlip an sliding across the floorShips our on a moonlit oceanSailin tward a distant shoreThe simple stuff we build our dreams uponWaxing, waning, now its almost gonePassion plays the sweetest tuneThese velvet days are gone far too soonDancers in perpetual motionSlip an sliding across the floorShips our on a moonlit oceanSailin tward a distant shoreWe spend our nights on silken sheetsWe play for gold but not for keepsDancers in perpetual motionSlip an sliding across the floorShips our on a moonlit oceanSailin tward a distant shore
