The Windmills Of Your Mind - Tom Jones

Lyrics by：Alan Bergman/Marilyn Bergman

Composed by：Michel Legrand

Round like a circle in a spiral

Like a wheel within a wheel

Never ending on beginning on an ever spinning reel

Like a snowball down a mountain or a carnival balloon

Like a carousel that's turning running rings around the moon

Like a clock whose hands are sweeping

Past the minutes on it's face

And the world is like an apple whirling silently in space

Like the circles that you find

In the windmills of your mind

Like a tunnel that you follow to a tunnel of it's own

Down a hollow to a cavern where the sun has never shown

Like a door that keeps revolving in a half forgotten dream

Or the ripples from a pebble someone tosses in a stream

Like a clock whose hands are sweeping

Past the minutes of it's face

And the world is like an apple whirling silently in space

Like the circles that you find

In the windmills of your mind

Keys that jingle in your pocket

Words that jangle in your head

Why did summer go so quickly

Was it something that you said

Lovers walk along the shore

And leave their footprints in the sand

Is the sound of distant drumming

Just the fingers of your hand

Pictures hanging in a hall

And the fragment of a song

Half remembered names and faces

But to whom do they belong

When you knew that it was over

Were you suddenly aware

That the autumn leaves were turning

To the color of her hair

Like a circle in a spiral like a wheel within a wheel

Never ending or beginning

On an ever spinning reel

As the images unwind like the circles that you find

In the windmills of your mind
