Olivia Newton-John - Spinning His Wheels lyrics

He didn't get home until ten

He was still hard at work even then

He didn't notice the change in her hair

Or the candles that burned everywhere

She went off to bed all alone

He didn't notice she'd gone

And it takes all her strength to hang on

She's on the edge of a circle, watching him spin around

They can't reach each other until he slows down

They can't find the center, how lonely that feels

She's stuck in a heartache, he's spinning his wheels

He crawls into bed after two

With a head full of things he should do

And he makes it quite clear with his kiss

She's no longer on the top of his list

There are times when she can't feel his love

So she remembers the way that it was

And she'll hold on tight 'til he does

She's on the edge of a circle, watching him spin around

They can't reach each other until he slows down

They can't find the center, how lonely that feels

She's stuck in a heartache, he's spinning his wheels

Oh, he's on a rise to the top

She won't ask him to stop

Just please don't forget her

Oh, he's so blinded by pride

She'd be right by his side

If he would just let her

They can't find the center, how lonely that feels

She's stuck in a heartache, he's spinning his wheels

She's stuck in a heartache, he's spinning his wheels
