Unwinding Lyrics

Janis Ian Unwinding

The hours pass, the night unwinds You left my heart a beat behind Time is a friend and a foe I never dreamed you would go Love is a clock unwinding

'round and around 'til the feelings run down I toss and I turn 'til I'm all tired out I know I told you not to worry, I'll be fine It's just a matter of the heart, and that takes time to unwind

I saw your sister yesterday We couldn't find a lot to say I took an apartment downtown I'm getting used to it now Leaving the past behind me

'round and around 'til the feelings run down I toss and I turn 'til I'm all tired out I know I told you not to worry, I'll be fine It's just a matter of the heart, and that takes time to unwind

Oh, 'round and around 'til the feelings run down I toss and I turn 'til I'm all tired out I know I told you not to worry, I'll be fine It's just a matter of the heart, and that takes time to unwind
