[Intro]
The needle lowers into the groove and I am whole
It could be any record I′ve lived with and loved a long time
Not only the music, but the whirlpool shimmering on the turn table funneling blackly down into the ocean of the ear
I've pulled around my desires a vinyl record's cloak of flaws and found it a perfect fit
Madly spinning, making its big dark sound
[Verse 1]
Sick of feeling down, but I stand my ground
Left me high and dry, painting me a promised sky
Feeling all alone when you come back home
Funny how things change when you turn a new page
Forget-mе-nots and foolish thoughts
Replaced instead with your nеw friend
[Chorus]
Spin me round, yeah, spin me right
Getting higher every night
Play me once and play me twice
Too bad you have to pay the price
Spin me round, yeah, spin me right
Take one look, turn off the lights
Play me once and play me twice
Wish I could just turn back the time
[Verse 2]
I don't know what we could have been if you hadn't gone
Let's not play pretend
Only time will tell what we feel inside
Wishing in the well with you on my mind
But I know you never wanted anything more than that
And for that, I'm truly haunted
But you can't take it back
[Chorus]
Spin me round, yeah, spin me right
Getting higher every night
Play me once and play me twice
Too bad you have to pay the price
Spin me round, yeah, spin me right
Take one look, turn off the lights
Play me once and play me twice
Wish I could just turn back the time
[Verse 3]
Will you or won't you just pick a poison
Kill me or thrill me won't make a noise
Fill me with lies, that's your first mistake
This time you won't get away with it
I hope you′re thinking about what you did
You were just messing with my emotions
Fragile bones break with one hit
One hit, over, that's what you did
[Chorus]
Spin me round, yeah, spin me right
Getting higher every night
Play me once and play me twice
Too bad you have to pay the price
Spin me round, yeah, spin me right
Take one look, turn off the lights
Play me once and play me twice
Wish I could just turn back the time
