Circle Bar Songtext
von Sid Griffin

I′m circling 'round the Circle Bar
Circling for a name
I′m circling 'round the Circle Bar
Can't remember why I came
Can′t remember things we said
But I remember why and how
I circle ′round the Circle Bar
Not knowing why just now

We danced 'til dizzy, way past dawn
And spoke of plans we made
Our fireworks dazzled every eye
We searched but found no shade
Past cobblestones and broken homes
And sinners on parade
I circle ′round the Circle Bar
Not knowing why I stayed


In Algier 'cross the water
And once in Jackson Square
I kissed you when we said goodbye
You laughed and then I swеared
Then you walked up Decatur
As thе wind blew back your hair
I watched you as you strolled to work
And said a silent prayer

Beignets in Café du Monde
The coffee strong and black
We watched a steamboat turn upstream
You never did come back
And then one Sunday morning
Across a market floor
I saw you walking hand in hand
And felt alone once more

I′m circling 'round the Circle Bar
Remembering why I came
My endless youth is ended now
These new days seem so tame
Can′t remember things we said
But I know I miss you now
I circle 'round the Circle Bar
Hope we meet again somehow

I circle 'round the Circle Bar
Hope we meet again somehow
