Dusty Springfield 
Lyrics for Song: The Windmills Of Your Mind 
Lyrics for Album: Classic [2009]
  
               
  1425>Round like a circle in a spiral
  Like a wheel within a wheel
  Never ending or beginning
  On an ever spinning reel
 
 
  Like a snowball down a mountain
  Or a carnival balloon
  Like a carousel that's turnin'
  Running rings around the moon
 
 
  Like a clock whose hands are sweepin'
  Past the minutes of its 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 its own
  Down a hollow to a cavern
  Where the sun has never shone
 
 
  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 sweepin'
  Past the minutes of its 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 a shore
  And leave their footprints in the sand
  Is the sound of distant drumming
  Just the fingers of your hand?
 
 
  Pictures hangin' in a hallway
  And the fragment of a song
  Half remembered names and faces
  But to whom do they belong?
 
 
  When you knew that it was over
  You were suddenly aware
  That the autumn leaves were turning
  To the color of his 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
