Spokes on a Wheel
Lyric and music by Francis C. Parker, Jr.
(FilkFerret)
Copyright © Apr 2001
C Am
The last few days I've heard and read
F G
From friends of mine on-line
C Am
One says he's lost a friend of years
Dm Gmaj7
"Her agenda was not mine."
F G
Another took her leave from love
C Em Am
To seek another fare
F G
Both friends were filled with loneliness-
F G C
And turned to those who care (chorus)
Chorus
F G
I see life as a circle
C Gmaj Am
There's a fullness to be found
F G
Like spokes upon a wheel
C Gmaj Am
Together we are bound
F G
The lives that touch our being
C Gmaj Am
Spreading outward from the core
F G
Shore up the outer structure
F G C
Of our world for evermore
I sat and read words of loss
Of new paths to carve out
I saw the feelings of many friends
Who responded to their call
And I thought how close we really are
And how fragile ties can be
And how we need to cling somehow
When friendship takes its leave (Chorus)
So every now and then
Through wear and tear of life
A spoke will loosen or fall off
And the wheel's no longer tight
We tend turn to those we trust
And ask them for advice
Like a wrench we use their words
To tighten up our lives (Chorus)
