Lyrics

Once around was all I ever needed

Expressing contentment with a single experience or cycle.

And in my dreams you take me by the hand

In a dream, a symbolic representation of a close connection or guidance.

And I know that you will be with me forever

Confidence in a lasting companionship, anticipating eternity.

As the wheel takes us both once more around

Referencing life's cyclical nature, implying continuity and repetition.


Once around the wheel begins revolving

Beginning of a cycle, possibly a metaphor for life's journey.

Our bodies slowly lifted from the crowd

Elevation above life's challenges, seeking a different perspective.

The hustle of the city's slowly fading

Escape from urban chaos, emphasizing a peaceful retreat.

And the heartbeat is the only living sound

Amidst the silence, the heartbeat symbolizes life and vitality.


Once around was all I ever needed

Reiteration of the satisfaction from a single complete cycle.

And in my dreams you take me by the hand

Revisiting the dream scenario, emphasizing its significance.

And I know that you will be with me forever

Reaffirmation of the belief in enduring companionship.

As the wheel takes us both once more around

Emphasizing the repetitive nature of life's journey.


We slowly watch the night give way to morning

Observing the transition from night to morning, a metaphor for change.

And hope we can suspend ourselves in time

Expressing a desire to freeze enjoyable moments in time.

And some I'll make these moments last forever

An intention to preserve special moments indefinitely.

And leave the ones who need us for behind

Choosing personal moments over external expectations.


Once around is all I have to give you

Offering a symbolic gesture, indicating commitment with one cycle.

Close your eyes you don't have

Suggesting a quiet and contemplative state, perhaps in anticipation.

To make a sound by the time it takes this

Encouraging silence as the wheel completes its rotation.

Wheel to stop revolving

Anticipation for a moment to stop, emphasizing its importance.

There's something that you need to understand

Highlighting the importance of understanding a particular concept.


Once around was all I ever needed

Reflecting on the satisfaction derived from a singular experience.

And in my dreams you take me by the hand

Reiterating the dream imagery, underscoring its significance.

And I know that you will be with me forever

Confidently asserting the eternity of a cherished connection.

As the wheel takes us both once more around

Reinforcing the cyclical nature of life's journey, expressing continuity.
