Round And Round
Jimmy Sturr and His Orchestra Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
As it skims along with a happy sound
As it goes along the ground, ground, ground
Till it leads you to the one you love
Then your love will hold you round, round, round
In your heart's a song with a brand new sound
And your head goes spinning round, round, round
In the night you see the oval moon
Going round and round in tune
And the ball of sun in the day
Makes a girl and boy want to say
Find a ring and put it round, round, round
And with ties so strong that two hearts are bound
Put it on the one you've found, found, found
For you know that this is really love
Find a wheel and it goes round, round, round
As it skims along with a happy sound
As it goes along the ground, ground, ground
Till it leads you to the one you love
Then your love, you'll hold her round, round, round
In your heart's a song with a brand new sound
And your head goes spinning round, round, round
'Cause you've found what you've been dreamin' of
In the night you see the oval moon
Going round and round in tune
And the ball of sun in the day
Makes a girl and boy want to say
Find a ring and put it round, round, round
And with ties so strong your two hearts are bound
Put it on the one you've found, found, found
For you know that this is really love
Find a ring, put it on
For you know that this is really love, really love, really love
The lyrics of Jimmy Sturr and His Orchestra's "Round and Round" tells the story of finding true love. It narrates the feeling of being led to the person you love as if the world revolves around them. The first stanza suggests that finding love is like finding a wheel that spins and leads a person to the one they love. The second stanza indicates that finding your other half results in the sensation of the heart and head spinning with a new sound, a new feeling of completeness. The chorus reinforces the theme of love leading you round and round like a wheel until you have found what you have been dreaming of.
The bridge of the song talks about the natural cycles of the world, the moon that goes round and round in tune and the ball of the sun that makes "a girl and boy want to say," perhaps indicating the romantic and amorous atmospheres. The final stanza compels the listener to find a ring and put it around the one they love, symbolizing commitment and the feeling of being tied to each other, and the knowing that this is "really love."
"Round and Round" is a song that endorses the idea of love being a force that drives people to find their true companion, someone who will complement and make them whole. The lyrics touch on different aspects of love that we may all relate to - the chasing, the feeling of completeness and satisfaction, and the fulfillment in being with a loved one.
