Watching the Wheels

People say I'm crazy, doing what I'm doing
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, dreaming my life away
Well, they give me all kinds of advice
designed to enlighten me

When I tell them that I'm doing fine
watching shadows on the wall
"Don't you miss the big time, boy?
You're no longer on the ball"

I'm just sitting here watching
the wheels go round and round

I really love to watch them roll
No longer riding on the merry-go-round
I just had to let it go

Ahhh, people ask me 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 sitting here doing time

I'm just sitting here watching the wheels
go round and round
I really love to watch them roll
No longer riding 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
