Art Koop - The Circle Is Lyrics

Some enter the circle as a roundabout
They come in only lookin' for a way out
Others have it spinning like a top
They don't go anywhere, and they never stop
Some see the circle as a hurricane
Where our lives get destroyed by the weather
Others see the circle as a great big blender
Where everyone gets stirred together
We see the circle as a safe place
Where each can look into the eyes of another
God knows, we're always walking in lines
Standing in boxes that go up and down
Everything is organized
So we can be efficient, so we can get around
We need a circle, we need a safe space
Judgement suspended, so healing can take place
We need a circle so we can serve each other
A space where the juices of our souls can be replaced
A circle is a bowl that holds
Nourishment for our souls
Turbine on a hill that makes the most
Of the power of the wind that blows
Some enter the circle as a roundabout
They come in only lookin' for a way out
We need a circle, we need a safe space
Judgement suspended, so healing can take place
Judgement suspended, so healing can take place
