Karaoké Human Wheels John Mellencamp

This land today shall draw its last breath and take into its ancient depths

This frail reminder of its giant dreaming self

While I with human-hindered eyes

Unequal to the sweeping curve of life stand on this single print of time

Human wheels spin 'round and 'round while the clock keeps the pace

Human wheels spin 'round and 'round

Help the light to my face

That time today no triumph gains at this short success of age

This pale reflection of its brave and blundering deed

For I descend from this vault

Now dreams beyond my earthly fault

Knowledge sure from the seed

Human wheels spin 'round and 'round while the clock keeps the pace

Human wheels spin 'round and 'round

Help the light to my face

This land today my tears shall taste and take into its dark embrace

This love who in my beating heart endures

Assured by every sun that burns

The dust to which this flesh shall return

It is the ancient dreaming dust of God

Human wheels spin 'round and 'round while the clock keeps the pace

Human wheels spin 'round and 'round

Help the light find my face

Human wheels spin 'round and 'round while the clock keeps the pace

Human wheels spin 'round and 'round

Help the light find my face
