lyrics

Draw me a circle

how much do we know
seasons come and go
time knocks at the door
and we are always home

how far can we go
following the wind
how much have we lost
how much can be saved

draw me a circle
in the sand
where I can find myself
push me now and then
so I can learn to fall

how much can we fail
without just letting go
the night unfolds
we hold on faster to the days

draw me a circle
in the sand
where I can find myself
push me now and then
so I can learn to fall
