about

'Circles' was written on a foggy day in Venice California in 1969 while tripping alone. I was staying in a small beach house only 2 blocks from the ocean at the time. The rent was dirt-cheap.

Circles

words & music - Allan Thomas


Round and round in circles
Everything seems to go round
The earth keeps turning the sun keeps burning
They both keep returning to where they're bound
Round and round and round in circles they go

Round and round in cycles
Everything sure does seem to roll round
The seasons they come and go
The more you learn the less you seem to know
Round and round in cycles we go

Round and round and up and down
Round and round we go
Round and round and up and down
Where we stop we don't know
Thats a simple philosophy
Yet it signifies everything I seem to see
Around you and me

Round and round in circles
Everything seems to go round
Round and round in circles
Everything seems to go round
The earth keeps turning the sun keeps burning
We all go returning to where we're bound

Round and round in circles
Round and round in cycles
Round and round in circles we go
