Watching the Wheels

People say I'm crazy

Doing what I'm doing

Well, they give me all kinds of warnings

To save me from ruin

When I say that I'm o.k.

They look at me kind of strange

Surely you're not happy now

You no longer play the game

People say I'm lazy

Dreaming my life away

Well, they give me all kinds of advice

Designed to enlighten me

When I tell them that I'm doing fine

Watching shadows on the wall

Don't you miss the big time, boy?

You're no longer on the ball

I'm just sitting here watching the wheels

Go round and round

I really love to watch them roll

No longer riding on the merry-go-round

I just had to let it go

I just had to let it go

People asking questions

Lost in confusion

Well, I tell them there's no problem

Only solutions

Well, they shake their heads and they look at me

As if I've lost my mind

I tell them there's no hurry

I’m just sitting here doing time

I'm just sitting here watching the wheels

Go round and round

I really love to watch them roll

No longer riding on the merry-go-round

I just had to let it go

I just had to let it go

I just had to let it go

Just had to let it go
