Chi Coltrane The Wheel Of Life
Chi Coltrane Life is like a ferris wheel It keeps on turning without feel As it spins round and round It picks you up and lets you down Up and down and back again The world seems to be in a spin Will this crazy cycle ever end? And when it does-- what then? The sun goes down and comes up again I can't remember where I've been The ferris wheel goes round and round I wonder if I'll hit the ground I almost do-- I almost do, But then somehow I've made it through! The wheel climbs on-- I'm up on top again Where is my life leading to? Whatever am I coming to? Sometimes fast-- sometimes slow It makes a circle as it goes As I face the ground below, I fear the wheel may lose control I know that I've been here before-- I do no know much more Then the wheel begins to rise And I can almost touch the sky It feels so good it makes me glad And now my life doesn't feel so bad The good and bad times come and go, As round and round the wheel must go And you and I -- ride this wheel of life.
