Monday Music - The Wheel

Here is a track from my Breath a Little Deeper CD.



THE WHEEL

Spinning in circles under your fingers.
Working my way through your fist and palm.
Whirling away all the formless chaos,
I ride the eye of this holy storm.

Change me, please change me.
Mold me, make me real.
Throw me and turn me
As I ride this wheel.

Buried and black where my heart laid fallow
You pushed your spade into my dark clay.
Stubborn and slow to take on your image;
Still you keep working me everyday.

Change me, please change me.
Mold me, make me real.
Throw me and turn me
As I ride this wheel.

Round and round I go
And where I land nobody knows;
It's in the potter's hands,
I'm just the clay,
I'm learning slowly how to say...

Change me, please change me.
Mold me, make me real.
Throw me and turn me
As I ride this wheel.

It's a wheel in wheel,
Wheel in a wheel,
Wheel in a wheel,
Way up up in the middle of the air.
