Lyrics

Wheel

[Verse 1]

People have the right to fly

And will when it gets compromised

Their hearts say "move along"

Their minds say "gotcha heart"

"Let's move it along"

Move it along

[Verse 2]

And airports see it all the time

Where someone's last goodbye

Blends in with someone's sigh

Cause someone's coming home

In hand a single rose

[Chorus]

And that's the way this wheel keeps working now

That's the way this wheel keeps working now

And I won't be the last

No, I won't be the last

To love her

[Verse 3]

And you can't build a house of leaves

And live like it's an evergreen

It's just a season thing

It's just this thing that seasons do

[Chorus]

And that's the way this wheel keeps working now

That's the way this wheel keeps working now

And you won't be the first

No, you won't be the first

To love me

[Bridge]

You can find me

If you ever want again

I'll be around the bend

I'll be around the bend

I'll be around, I'll be around

And if you never stop when you wave goodbye

You just might find if you give it time, you will wave hello again

You just might wave hello again

[Chorus]

And that's the way this wheel keeps working now

That's the way this wheel keeps working now

[Outro]

You can't love too much, one part of it

You can't love too much, one part of it

You can't love too much, one part of it

You can't love too much, one part of it

I believe (You can't love too much, one part of it)

That my life's going to see (You can't love too much, one part of it)

The love I give return to me (You can't love too much, one part of it)

(You can't love too much, one part of it)

I believe (You can't love too much, one part of it)

That my life's going to see (You can't love too much, one part of it)

The love I give return to me

I believe

That my life's going to see the love I give return to me
