Circle Dream - 10,000 Maniacs

I dreamed of a circle, I dreamed of a circle round.

And in that circle I had made were all

The worlds unformed and unborn yet.

A volume, a sphere that was the earth,

That was the moon, that did revolve around my room.

I dreamed of a circle, I dreamed of a circle round.

And in that circle was a maze,

A terrible spiral to be lost in.

Blind in my fear,

I was escaping just by feel.

But at every turn my way was sealed.

I dreamed of a circle, I dreamed of a circle round.

And in that circle was a face.

Her eyes looked upon me with fondness.

Her warmth coming near,

Calling me «sweetness,"calling me «dear.»

But I whispered, «no, I can’t rest here.»

I dreamed of a circle, I dreamed of a circle round.
