Remembering an early time, not as sure, but with no wrinkles on my eyes
What might I tell her, as I play rewind, cause I’m learning this lesson another time

Around and back again do I really need to learn this lesson again
But from what I’ve found on these trips around the sun
With acceptance half the battles won

I can’t change you, no matter how I try In the same way I can’t reshape the sky
But maybe I could learn to fly and I’ll give this lesson another try

Around and back again do I really need to learn this lesson again
But from what I’ve found on these trips around the sun
With acceptance half the battles won
Bridge
Did I have to go so far away to find my way home? But each end is a beginning & I’ve never walked
alone. These questions have no answers, the circle has no end. Make me grateful I can start again.


Around and back again do I really need to learn this lesson again
But from what I’ve found on these trips around the sun
With acceptance half the battles won

Seeing me now, can I be more kind and maybe even thankful for the tears and the lines
Moving with more grace & thankfulness this time, surrendered to the karmic rewind
Chorus
Around and back again do I really need to learn this lesson again
But from what I’ve found on these trips around the sun
With acceptance half the battles won
