An empty book upon an empty shelf I hear them coming up the road
Way back when nobody knew your name We read the papers everyday
It's good to hide yourself away But if you're gone too long
If I can go there anymore Cause when I venture back
Well there was a stream out there And if you can see your life That's not the way it ends
Back around the turn of the century It was a woman, a child and me This little Buddah on our hands And just before the preacher came to me She said there's something you should see You've got some fire left to breathe
Because you are hungry but you're safe But if you close your eyes You'll know just what to say
But your in someone else's thoughts
Still as round and round and round Still it's once away not doubting
Round and round and round and round now Round and round and round and round now We go round and round and round and round now
