Perry Como 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 song "Round and Round" by Perry Como is a classic love song about the journey of finding true love. The first few lines of the song describe the journey of finding love as a wheel that goes round and round, skimming along with a happy sound until it leads you to the one you love. Once you find that special someone, your love will hold you tight and your heart will be filled with a brand new song. The idea of the wheel going round and round is used throughout the song as a symbol of the journey of love.
The lyrics speak of the power of love and how it can make you feel like your head is spinning round and round. The oval moon and ball of sun are also used as symbols of the cycle of life and how finding love can be a part of that cycle. The chorus speaks of finding a ring and putting it on as a symbol of the strength and commitment of true love.
The lyrics of "Round and Round" are simple yet effective in conveying the emotions of falling in love. The song is an affirmation of true love and the importance of commitment in a relationship. The repeated use of the wheel going round and round serves as a reminder of the journey of love and the importance of staying committed through the ups and downs of a relationship.

КРУГ ЗА КРУГОМ
(перевод Евгения Соловьева)
Колесо найди, и круг, круг, круг
Описав, издаст свой счастливый звук.
По земле катясь вокруг, вдруг, вдруг
Приведёт тебя к твоей любви.
И в кругу любимых рук, рук, рук,
В сердце ты найдёшь новой песни звук.
Всё плывёт — за кругом круг, круг, круг,
Так как вдруг сбылись мечты твои.
Видишь ты в ночи луны овал,
Как, кружась, он танцевал.
Солнца шар принудит и днём
Говорить влюблённых о том.
Из колец на пальцах рук, рук, рук
Двух сердец прочней нет связи вокруг.
И супруг твой милый друг, друг, друг,
Ведь теперь узнали вы любовь.
Колесо найди, и круг, круг, круг
Описав, издаст свой счастливый звук.
По земле катясь вокруг, вдруг, вдруг
Приведёт тебя к твоей любви.
И в кругу любимых рук, рук, рук,
В сердце ты найдёшь новой песни звук.
Всё плывёт — за кругом круг, круг, круг,
Так как вдруг сбылись мечты твои.
Видишь ты в ночи луны овал,
Как, кружась, он танцевал.
Солнца шар принудит и днём
Говорить влюблённых о том.
Из колец на пальцах рук, рук, рук
Двух сердец прочней связи нет вокруг.
И супруг твой милый друг, друг, друг,
Ведь теперь узнали вы любовь.
Взяв кольцо, ты надень,
Ведь теперь узнали вы любовь.
Всю любовь, всю любовь.

The chorus ! The unbelievable voice of Perry ... the arrangement ... everything so perfect . Year passing, world change, but no one can forget this song.
Theresa
A feel good song not the Junk they play today
Judy King
My mom and dad loved his show in the 50's. This takes me back to my childhood. It makes me feel good. And, I still like his sound.
Tom Hohn
Always admired his vocal quality as well as his apparently effortless delivery...the hallmark of a true master of his craft.
Mark Kaufman
This is the first song I remember hearing, when I was a five year old in 1957. I was waiting for a shot in a doctor's office, and pretty nervous. This song helped! What a memory...
kevin heming
Memories indeed! I was 4 in '57 and one of the first songs I remember is Perry's 'Catch A Falling Star'. What songs of today will be so memorable in sixty years time?
POL SKA
Nice memory :D
Tru Keesey
You youngsters are adorable.
Mike Doyle
Hey, me too! March ‘52. The good stuff.
