Starwheel

Starwheel

(album: Joy Will Find A Way - 1975)

Orion's high in the south-west sky
You're bound to move on and so am I
On this world we've had time to burn
How come nobody ever seems to learn?
See how the starwheel turns

Crystal drift on the whistling wind
Constant change is the space we're in
You may use a slide rule or a golden crown
But nothing's worth it that you can pin down
See how the starwheel turns

Don't go playing no shell game with God
Only Satan's going to give you odds
We're given love and love must be returned
That's all the bearings that you need to learn
See how the starwheel turns
