The Wheel Lyrics by Victoria Banks

When You Can Fly

2009

You come into the world kicking and screaming
The clock starts ticking with the breath you’re breathing
Tiny hands, tiny feet, and all you do is eat and sleep
Then you blink your eyes and you’re crawlin’ cross the floor
And you blink em again and you’re running out the door
For a tire swing, then a schoolbus, then a second hand chevy and you’re kickin’ up dust…it happens so fast, just like that
Chorus:
Oh the wheel keeps turning, and the flame keeps burning
And the hunger in the heart and the spirit in the soul keeps yearning, and the wheel keeps turning
You fall for love on a prayer and a wing and
Your heart gets broken and you feel that sting
And you fall again and it sure feels right
And half a second later they’re throwing rice
Then you’re back to work and the honeymoon’s done
Boy time flies when you’re having fun
You buy a little house with a leaky roof
Then you’re paintin’ that nursery baby blue
The first time you hold him, it starts all over
Chorus:
Oh the wheel keeps turning, and the flame keeps burning
And the hunger in the heart and the spirit in the soul keeps yearning, and the wheel keeps turning
The sun comes up and the moon goes down
The rock in the sky spins round and round
It’s one more day here on the ground as the stars roll by
You live and learn break and bend
Say a little prayer when the daylight ends
Wake in the morning do it all again it’s a crazy ride
Chorus:
Oh the wheel keeps turning, and the flame keeps burning
And the hunger in the heart and the spirit in the soul keeps yearning, and the wheel keeps turning
You come into the world kickin’ and screaming
And the wheel keeps turning
