Lyrics

Lateness of Dancers

Yeah one morning, one morning
Yeah the sun was shining
To mark the day I buried my sword

Yeah one morning, one morning
But the world was in motion
With the sweet lateness of dancers
Yes, I'm learning now
Yes, I'm learning now

Yeah One morning, one morning
Oh Like a beggar I went roving
With no clear sense of direction
And no coin in my cup
And no coin in my cup

Wheel of love, yes wheel of love (Wheel of love)
You broke me (Wheel of love)
Yes wheel of love, yeah wheel of love (Wheel of love)
You broke me (Wheel of love)

Yeah one morning, one morning
Yes I came to the mountain
There was a sign one very door
Oh it's easy now
Yes, it's easy now

Wheel of love, yes wheel of love (Wheel of love)
You broke me (Wheel of love)
Yes wheel of love, yeah wheel of love (Wheel of love)
You broke me (Wheel of love)

Yes wheel of love, yeah wheel of love (Wheel of love)
You broke me (Wheel of love)
Yes wheel of love, yeah wheel of love (Wheel of love)
You broke me (Wheel of love)
