Lyrics

It's been forty days and nights
Since I heard you
Girl, I cannot bring myself
To ask you why
It's a fact that your not here
I ain't accusing you
I only seek the simple answer from the sky

Chorus
See the circle spinnin' round
Changing colors without a sound
Helter, skelter, doomsday plan
It's just another tale of a man

Lay me down, lay me down
In your heaven
I can really see
Everything quite clear
I can almost reach your hand
Enough to touch you
Girl, I'll have you safe and sound within a year

Chorus
See the circle spinnin' round
Changing colors without a sound
Helter, skelter, doomsday plan
It's just another tale of a man

Solo

It's been forty days and nights
Since I heard you
Girl, I cannot bring myself
To ask you why
It's a fact that your not here
I ain't accusing you
I only seek the simple
Answer from the sky

Chorus
See the circle spinnin' round
Changing colors without a sound
Helter, skelter, doomsday plan
It's just another tale of a man
