From myspace: Since 1989, Glenn Jones has led Boston’s “avant -garage” instrumental rock band, Cul de Sac, whose musical adventures are documented on nine albums to date, including a soundtrack for cult-director Roger Corman, and collaborations with guitarist John Fahey and former Can vocalist Damo Suzuki.

In 2004, Jones stepped out of the long shadow cast by Takoma’s guitar visionaries and offered his own "new possibility"—This Is the Wind That Blows It Out—for Strange Attractors Audio House. Its release was followed by a month-long tour of Europe with guitarist Jack Rose. Jones has since shared bills with Steffen Basho-Junghans, Max Ochs, Matt Valentine / Erika Elder; along with Rose, he’s toured with Peter Lang, and with some of the best of the new breed of solo guitar upstarts: Harris Newman, Sean Smith, and James Blackshaw, among others

Round and Round
Glenn Jones Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Tonight's the night I've been waiting for
Champagne is chilled and the lights are low
I've dreamed of this moment a thousand times or more
Come closer baby I need you so
Don't be afraid, afraid of what you feel
Now that we both know love is real
So baby take my hand and away we go
To a place called ecstasy a place where lovers go

Round and round and around we go
Hold on tight don't let love go
We'll take our time nice and slow
Hold on baby here we go

I feel your heart and it's beating so fast
Let's take our time ooh let's make love last
Cause we've got forever, we've only just begun
Let me love you tenderly, I'll never leave your side baby
Here is where you ought to be
You know you can always count on me
We've come too far to turn back
Now hold on girl cause we're heaven bound

Round and round and around we go
Hold on tight don't let love go

We'll take our time nice and slow
Hold on baby here we go
