Going around in circles (going around)
Spinning natural cycles ('round in circles)
Once there was nothing
Then there was something
But something of nothing
‘Cause everything comes from nothing at all
We’re all going somewhere (somewhere)
Somewhere or nowhere (nowhere)
We just don’t know where
So just enjoy the ride
We think we’re on the way to some special destination
But see it’s all about ‘The Trip’, enjoying life in liberation
We’re going around in circles (going around)
Spinning natural cycles (around in circles)
Going around in circles (going around)
So flow in nature’s cycles
And just dance, dance, dance
First it comes, and then it goes (then it goes)
But where we come from no one knows (no one knows)
Without attachment it all flows
‘Cause we control nothing at all
From the darkness comes the light (comes the light)
And then from daytime back to night (back to night)
But from the darkness true insight
The dark’s our shadowed light
After winter comes the spring, and then in summer we begin
The fall of light, through autumn’s glow and back to winter, so we know
We’re going around in circles (going around)
Spinning natural cycles (around in circles)
Going around in circles (going around)
So flow in nature’s cycles
And just dance, dance, dance, dance
We’re going around in circles
Spinning natural cycles
We're going around in circles
So flow in nature’s cycles
And just dance, dance, dance, dance
Going around in circles (going around) (Going around!)
Spinning natural cycles (around in circles) (around and 'round and 'round)
We’re going around in circles (going around)
So flow in nature’s cycles
And just dance, dance, dance (come on and dance)
Dance, dance, dance (vamos!)
Dance, dance, dance
Dance, dance, dance, dance, dance (we gotta keep on dancing)
In truth, spiralling 'round
The proof, in nature is found
What goes up, must come down
In cycles, spiralling 'round...
Cover Art based on the Universal Celestial Calendar)
Part of my mission is to rediscover and remind myself and others how our natural universal cycles work, and how syncing with them rather than the Gregorian 'Matrix' calendar and clocks, can help us balance our lives
With this always in the back or front of my mind, I was listening to the Alan Watts podcast 'Being In The Way' and found myself laughing, nodding and affirming from my own experience what he was saying about the nature of our existence, drawing on Taoist, Buddhist and Hindu philosophy. And especially the eastern view of the cyclical nature of space & time, which I totally resonate with.
I highly recommend the podcast if you're into pondering existentialism, and to answer the question 'Watts It All About?!' haha
So this song all came out of that experience as I found myself walking around singing "we're going around in circles", which of course we totally are, so "just enjoy the ride"...
