Stop The Wheel - Gemma Hayes

He’s getting married on the wednesday

But h was buried on the monday

And his girlfriend is due in three weeks

And she’s my cousin

Her mother went off the rails

And started praying that this child

Would have straight teeth

My car got broken into

Don’t seem to dream like I used to

And the wind was crazy in a wild place last night

I couldn’t sleep

So I stayed up worrying

And I prayed everyone I loved was alright

We cannot stop the wheel

We cannot stop the wheel

From turning

We cannot stop the wheel

We cannot stop the wheel

So let’s just enjoy the ride

Well I admit

Some people make me nervous

The one’s who’ve stopped scaring the hell out of themselves

And you see them claiming to be wild and free

Holding their young grey hearts in their hands

Sweet boy press your hand against my lips

You got to stop me trying to make sense of it all

And whisper

I’ll race you to the edge

And we’ll open up our arms and just fall

We cannot stop the wheel

Cannot stop the wheel

From turning

We cannot stop the wheel

Cannot stop the wheel

So let’s just enjoy the ride

Cannot stop the wheel

Embrace the down side

Follow the landslide

Embrace the down side

Follow the landslide

Embrace the down side

Follow your landslide

And just enjoy the ride

Cannot stop the wheel

Cannot stop the wheel

Cannot stop the wheel

Cannot stop the wheel
