Big Wheel

This is your city

Where you hide from the sun

You keep track of lightning

And shadows on the run

The city's waiting

Night is falling on the park

Too long in the city

Waiting for a change of heart

It's such a pity

That you can't see the stars

Working out obsessions

In the back seat of a car

Oh, life

Is a big wheel, and it's rolling over you

People passing through

Staring out of machines

Strangers gone steady

With girls you used to see

You've heard of loving

You can try to relate

You know the music

But you're moving too late

It's easy loving

When it don't have to last

It's easy loving

If you don't have a past

Oh, life

Is a big wheel, and it's rolling over you

Days in the city

Don't make a happy man

Guns for your money

Get the rings off your hand

Money comes easy

But it can't buy a dream

Pleasure kinda hurts

When taken to extremes

It's easy loving

When it don't have to last

It's easy living

When it don't have a past

Oh, life

Is a big wheel, and it's rolling over you
