The Kingston Trio — The Spinnin' of the World lyrics

Lyrics

I am gone. I can fly like a comet on the sky. I’m a-lookin' for the shelter of a hurricane’s eye.
If I turn the corner and your face, it isn’t there, I’ll come runnin' back
tomorrow and go searchin' everywhere.
The sunset is red. I remember what they said. There’s no rest for the weary.
I’d be better off dead.
I cannot find any words for my mind. My eyes, they can see, but it feels like
I’m blind.
I am gone. I can fly as a comet on the sky. I’m a-lookin' for the shelter of a hurricane’s eye
If I turn the corner and your face, it isn’t there, I’ll come runnin' back
tomorrow and go searchin' everywhere.
(Chorus, twice)
