"Watching The Wheels" lyrics

People say I'm crazy
Doin' what I'm doin'
Well, they give me all kinds of warnings
To save me from ruin
When I say that I'm okay
Well, they look at me kinda strange
"Surely you're not happy now?
You no longer play the game"

People say I'm lazy
Dreamin' my life away
Well, they give me all kinds of advice
Designed to enlighten me
When I tell 'em that I'm doin' fine
Watchin' shadows on the wall
"Don't you miss the big time, boy?
You're no longer on the ball"

I'm just sittin' here watchin' the wheels go 'round and 'round
I really love to watch them roll
No longer ridin' on the merry-go-round
I just had to let it go

Ah, people askin' questions
Lost in confusion
Well, I tell them there's no problem
Only solutions
Well, they shake their heads and they look at me
As if I've lost my mind
I tell them, "There's no hurry
I'm just sittin' here doing time"

I'm just sittin' here watchin' the wheels go 'round and 'round
I really love to watch them roll
No longer ridin' 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
