Round And Round
LOUNGE - Aerosmith Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Uh uh uh cha

If you believe in me like I believe in you
You wouldn't be tellin' me things that weren't exactly true
Now everything changes ain't nothin' the same
I'm gettin' the strangest feelin' I can't remember my name
'Cause the life I been livin' and the love I been givin'
Would be sure to set you spinnin' witcha' feet never touchin' the ground

And I'm round and round

Well it was one for all and it was all for one
And everything that we did never bothered no one
Look here now everythin' changes ain't nothin' the same
I'm gettin' the strangest feelin' I can't remember my name
'Cause the life I been livin' and the love someone give me
Would be sure to set you spinnin' with you feet never touchin' the ground
And I'm round and round and round and round and round and round and round

Can you remember the days when you were sweet sixteen
And always caught in the blaze of someone else's dreams
Look now everythin' changes ain't nothin' the same
I'm gettin' the strangest feelin' I can't remember my name

I'm goin' round and round

(Round and round and)

If you believe in me like I believe in you
If you trust and have faith in me just as I do in you

You wouldn't be tellin' me things that weren't exactly true
You wouldn't be lying to me or deceiving me

Now everything changes ain't nothin' the same
Now everything is different, nothing remains unchanged

I'm gettin' the strangest feelin' I can't remember my name
I'm experiencing a peculiar sensation where I can't recall my own identity

'Cause the life I been livin' and the love I been givin'
Because the way I've been living my life and the love I've been giving

Would be sure to set you spinnin' witcha' feet never touchin' the ground
Would undoubtedly make you feel dizzy, as if your feet are never touching the ground

And I'm round and round
And I'm going in circles, trapped in a repetitive cycle

Well it was one for all and it was all for one
We were united, working together as a team

And everything that we did never bothered no one
And everything we did didn't bother anyone

Look here now everythin' changes ain't nothin' the same
Now look, everything is changing and nothing is as it used to be

Can you remember the days when you were sweet sixteen
Can you recall the times when you were young and innocent at sixteen

And always caught in the blaze of someone else's dreams
And always caught up in the excitement and aspirations of someone else

Look now everythin' changes ain't nothin' the same
Look now, everything is changing and nothing remains the same

I'm gettin' the strangest feelin' I can't remember my name
I'm experiencing a strange sensation where I can't recollect my own name

I'm goin' round and round
I'm continuously going in circles, trapped in a cycle I can't escape from

(Round and round and)
(Repeating the cycle over and over again)
