Lyrics

CIRCLING THE DRAIN
(Deborah Holland - Dan Navarro)

Every minute around the world
Two hundred fifty babies born
Some with a silver spoon
Some with a belly full of dreams
What ties them all together
The desire to uncover what life means

CHORUS
You can swim against the tide
You can stand in a hurricane
Try and scale a mountainside
Knowing it could be all in vain
We’re circling the drain

There are times you’re flying high
When all the pieces lock in place
You’re on a gambler’s roll
You’ve got the golden touch all right
But just as quick the magic’s gone
Slipped right through your fingers overnight

CHORUS
You can swim against a tide
You can stand in a hurricane
Try and scale the mountainside
Knowing it could be all in vain
We’re circling the drain

Well you can try so hard you’re spinning
We’ve got this time on earth
Why not live it for all it’s worth
And be a little more forgiving
You can fill your cup with sun
Drink up every last drop until it’s done

CHORUS
You can swim against a tide
You can stand in a hurricane
Try and scale the mountainside
Knowing it could be all in vain
But we keep trying just the same
We’re circling the drain
