Lyrics The Beauty of Running Circles - Michael Malarkey

The Beauty of Running Circles

I could buy you a drink
but I walk the line instead
Need to learn a trick or two
To keep my head from hanging down
Just another moment
In the afternoon
Just another evening
When the morning comes too soon
I’m the only one who’s tangled up in here
But I’ve grown to love the knots
The beauty of running circles is that it never seems to stop
It just connects the dots
I could bum you a smoke
But I quit a week ago
To you it seems like a joke
But for me that’s progress
Just another moment
In the afternoon
Just another evening
When the morning comes too soon
You seem to be the girl you were ten years ago
But a different shade of blue
And in a drink or two
Well the truth is
I’ve got a bone to pick with you
Love, love me do
I’ll be drinking too
I offer you to lose your head with me
I may fall losing
And I don’t play the blues my love
But I’ll sing it with you when we’re leaving
Just another moment
In the afternoon
Just another evening
When the morning comes too soon
I’m the only one who’s tangled up in here
But I’ve grown to love the knots
The beauty of running circles is that it never seems to stop
It just connects the dots
Until the feeling stops
It just connects the dots
Until the lights turn off
