Rodney Crowell - Dancin' Circles Round The Sun (Epictetus Speaks) songtekst
Je score:
Disregard what don't concern you, don't let disappointment turn you Avoid adopting other people's views Know what you can and can't control, don't let envy take a toll It's nothing more than weather passing through When your back's against the wall, when you're headed for a fall The tables set to make a run dancin' circles round the sun Through action wisdom is revealed and too much talk is like a shield In silence lies the keys to how we grow When focused on the truth at hand, the critics try to make you bland But they don't understand what they don't know Make your own cracks in the sky, grit your teeth and learn to fly And when the right thing has been done, you'll be dancin' circles round the sun Forgive the ones who meant to harm you, don't let superstition charm you Conform your wishes only to what's real Your reputation doesn't matter, let idle gossip chirp and chatter No one else can tell you how you feel In between the masks you wear, wash your face and comb your hair You're not hurting anyone dancin' circles round the sun Your mind cries out to God alone, please send me someone I can own Your soul says son you're walking on thin ice Possession in the broadest sense, compounded by coincidence When all it takes is one roll of the dice In between the good and bad, think of all the fun you had It's the same for everyone dancin' circles round the sun Evolution comes in fits, it stops and starts, it coughs and spits Picasso and Mile Davis come to mind True artists, bold unbridled passion, no concern for fad or fashion Sexy beasts in love with woman kind Bend the rules until it breaks, stand your ground until it shakes That's the way to get things done dancin' circles round the sun Hey, sod convention let's have fun dancin' circles round the sun
