Circling by Chris Cornell Lyrics

Genre: rock | Year: 2015

[Verse]
Night falls while drunken angels
Sleep by the side of the road
Now I'm nodding in the stairwell
Just trying to stay out of the cold

[Chorus]
Circling around the drain
Can’t find my way back home
The road is long and never ends
Dark is the heart that wanders

[Verse]
Light breaks in through the window
Takes a minute to know where I am
A dying blackbird gives his soul to the wind
On the roof of the house that I can see from my bed

[Chorus]
Circling around the drain
Show me the way back home
The road is long and never ends
Dark is the heart that wanders
[Bridge]
I'll crawl a hundred thousand miles
Just to see your two eyes look me over
I’d steal you flowers in the bloodshot light
Of lonely hours of a moonless night
Just like a stray dog in the rain
I can run all night and get nowhere
I picture you out underneath the porch light
Calling my name and now you’re waiting for me

[Verse]
I thought I heard your voice in the water
As I walked by a fountain uptown
Now I don’t often let the door of a church
Just watching the water calm down

[Chorus]
Circling around the drain
Hope that I make it home
I’ve never felt so far away
Dark is the heart that wanders
