[Intro]
Am
[Verse]
Somewhere the leaves on the trees look like Glace
Falling in shadows across your Amface
Sunshine and darkness in perfect harmoGny
Shadows now live where light used to Ambe
[Chorus]
A spinning wheel where our memories were Gspun
Weaving our way through the fabric of Amtime
Winding the wheel back to where we had beGgun
Spinning away to when you once were Ammine
[Instrumental]
Am  G  Am  Em  C C/E G  Dm  Am  E7
[Verse]
AmHere in my chamber, waiting for the Gdawn
I turn away, the curtains are Amdrawn
Somewhere in time when the night began to Gfall
Just for that moment we had it Amall
[Chorus]
A spinning wheel where our memories were Gspun
Weaving our way through the fabric of Amtime
Winding the wheel back to where we had beGgun
Spinning away to when you once were Ammine
[Instrumental]
Am  G  Am  Em  C C/E G  Dm  Am  E7
[Verse]
AmWe choose our path never knowing right or Gwrong
Ribbons get tangled within the Amstorm
Just like the widow was weaving her Gweb
The spinner's wheel holds tight to the Amthread

Somewhere the leaves on the trees look like lace

Falling in shadows across your face

Sunshine and darkness in perfect harmony

Shadows now live where light used to be

A spinning wheel where our memories were spun

Weaving our way through the fabric of time

Winding the wheel back to where we had begun

Spinning away to when you once were mine

Am G

Here in my chamber, waiting for the dawn

I turn away, the curtains are drawn

Somewhere in time when the night began to fall

Just for that moment we had it all

[Chorus]

A spinning wheel where our memories were spun

Weaving our way through the fabric of time

Winding the wheel back to where we had begun

Spinning away to when you once were mine

[Instrumental]

Am G Am Em C C/E G Dm Am E7

[Verse]

Am G

We choose our path never knowing right or wrong

Ribbons get tangled within the storm

Just like the widow was weaving her web

The spinner's wheel holds tight to the thread
