Watching the Wheels

Lennon

Today, John Lennon would celebrate his 68th birthday, and I hope his son Sean is celebrating his 33th… this is my tribute as a Beatles’ and John Lennon’s fan.

I don’t believe in any God, he is not physically here nor in heaven for me. He is dead, but that doesn’t mean he has dissapeared: we still have his music keeping his memory alive.

Happy Birthday to both of them.

People say Im crazy doing what Im doing
Well they give me all kinds of warnings to save me from ruin
When I say that Im o.k. well they look at me kind of strange
Surely youre not happy now you no longer play the game
People say Im lazy dreaming my life away
Well they give me all kinds of advice designed to enlighten me
When I tell them that Im doing fine watching shadows on the wall
Dont you miss the big time boy youre no longer on the ball
Im just sitting here watching the wheels go round and round
I really love to watch them roll
No longer riding on the merry-go-round
I just had to let it go
Ah, people asking questions lost in confusion
Well I tell them theres no problem, only solutions
Well they shake their heads and they look at me as if Ive lost my mind
I tell them theres no hurry
Im just sitting here doing time
Im just sitting here watching the wheels go round and round
I really love to watch them roll
No longer riding on the merry-go-round
I just had to let it go
I just had to let it go
I just had to let it go
