Small Circles - The Rainmakers

She reached out and touched my hand

And made me dance to some local band

But the beat was slow so there we stand

As we move in small circles

We cut out before the night was through

Start my car and we drove the Loop

Talked about the things we were going through

As we move in small circles

We move in small circles

She said she didn’t know the ways of love

I said neither do I, I thought you’d show me some

We dilly-dallied like that for six or eight months

As we move in small circles

A couple of times she stayed with me

And we worked it out on a single sheet

I can hear every painful squeak

As we move in small circles

We move in small circles

Then she grew up and I grew up

And she got tough and I got tough

So much for love, so much for love

As we move in small circles

Now we make money and we’re all right

And we drive cars and wield our might

We make love to people that we don’t even like

As we move in small circles

And I don’t even think about her now

I just said all this to be working my mouth

I wish I cared but I don’t know how

As we move in small circles

We move in small circles
