Slowly Turns The Wheel

(album: Chimes At Midnight - 2022)

Oh, so, so slowly turns the wheel
And someone may still come
And someone surely will, I lie still
You know of all the lies held against you
No lie was ever so untrue
As what you keep repeating to yourself
Now, you would never say such things
About no one else

Ride, my sister, find your own way home
I'm really no one that you know

Let us wait a while and it goes
Should be nothing at all
Should be passing at the break of dawn

You know I never cried
Like we did with you last night
Listening to the rain
And you telling it again and again
How you think they'll never known?
They'll never known 'cause they never been you
Rise above it all
Might be the one thing that gets you through

Ride, my sister, find your own way home
I'm really no one that you know

Let us wait a while and it goes
Should be nothing at all
Should be passing at the break of dawn

If you wither in denial
Or if I should leave you now
There's more questions in the answers
I'm giving to you tonight

Stop, let us wait a while and it goes
Should be nothing at all
Should be passing at the break of dawn, oh
Lost in those lovely lines on your face
I never took the time
I let anything just pull me away, oh

Lost
Wait a minute, wait a minute
I never took the time
Never took the time
Never took the time
