My life goes on in a circle of fifths
around from the downs to the glorious lifts
it turns face to face with a memory that shifts
and dances to a gypsy song
The baby i was now is far round the bend
i find myself humming the tunes that i send
messengers looking for fortunes and friends
the circle of fifths never ends
Find me, i'm behind you a step
ahead of the foolish and far away crowd
won't you try me, i can dance like your dreams
as much as invention allows
My life goes on in a circle of fifths
around from the downs to the glorious lifts
it turns face to face with a memory that shifts
and dances to a gypsy song
