Whirl Away Patti Smith

Hello friend I've come a calling
Passively station active patrol
Sliding in high noon
Like some reluctant sheriff
Not want to get involved in it all
Who stands guard for each other
Why must we guard anything at all
Anything at all

From the earth's four corners the people are calling
Forming equations but the questions are hard
All men are brothers killing each other
And mother earth is wringing in wonder
Who stands guard for each other
Why must we guard anything at all
Anything at all
Whirl away now
Whirl away now
Whirl away

There's a cross on the road, there's a great mill turning
Some seeking answers, some are born with answers
You can hold on the blade and turn around forever
Be flung into space into another kind of grace
=Who stands guard for each other
Why must we guard anything at all
Anything at all
Whirl away now
Whirl away now
Whirl away
