Circle Around the Sun Lyrics

The Pines

The first day of the festival, the last day of the fall
A sympathetic breeze blew through, the buttons of your shawl
In the world of charming dandies, still the arrows pierced the skin
Of the hearts of human kindness from the lords of war-torn sin
Seven years in exile, now the high sea brings you back
I didn't even know you in the days before attack
On golden pond you took my hand and led me to the place
Where somehow there was still some space for our embrace

Without a word I soon agreed to holding first things first
The desert song you sang to me I memorized each verse
When so much depends on making sure the damage is never done
Throw your arms around me babe, like a circle round the sun

Riverside with sad lament, no money for the fare
We watched the boats for hourse, we weren't going anywhere
All the celebrated captains and those ladies so and such
Every single one looked so fragile to the touch

With discount visions of ecstasy and borrowed solitude
A song condemning nations exploded from the flute
As a medicine for bad-heart lands riddled by disease
And hoarding every penny in this country with no peace

With a silver stone deep in my hand I had nothing to fear
The pattern of the brightest beads hung gently from your ear
The fighting never keeps the very things that fighting won
Throw your arms around me babe, like a circle round the sun
