What Goes Around
sjowgren Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I don't want you to worry
It wasn't supposed to be like this
But when it all turns around
We'll go back and laugh about it
We say the same things over and over
I scare myself convinced that you're right
We walk the same paths over and over
Can't help you think straight and relax
Yeah home seems far for now
What goes around
We don't know what to do
Run around this town
Not reading what the signs are saying to
We'll figure it out though
Let the internet tell us so
I don't wanna wait too long
Don't wanna wait
By now yeah it's clearing
When it rains it comes down like this it pours
But when it all turns around
We'll go back and laugh about it
We say the same things over and over
I scare myself convinced that you're right
We walk the same paths over and over
Can't help you think straight and relax
Yeah home seems far for now
What goes around
We don't know what to do
Run around this town
Not reading what the signs are saying to
We'll figure it out though
Let the internet tell us so
I don't wanna wait too long
What goes around
We don't know what to do
Run around this town
Not reading what the signs are saying to
We'll figure it out though




Let the internet tell us so
I don't wanna wait too long
