The Lyrics
The "Roundabout" single was the first Yes record I ever bought, and "Long Distance Runaround" was on the flipside. youtube
Flipside to "Roundabout"
One side, filling the record out
I still remember it bein' there
I still remember the time I heard it out
Didn't really stand out
What the hell's it about
Didn't really think "Whoa, that's rockin'"
Spare single, listening
Fair way to, balance the other side out
I still remember it bein' there
I still remember the time I heard it first
Wasn't really the worst
Was I really averse
Guess I kinda thought, "Well, that's okay"
Flipside to "Roundabout"
Backside, there when you turn it round
I still remember it bein' there
I still remember the way it sounded then
[SOLO]
Spare single, listening
Nice way to, finish the disc with a bang
I still remember it bein' there
I still remember the way it grew on me
Then I started to see
This is how it could be
Made me wanna go buy the album
This is how it could be
One side, filling the record out
I still remember it bein' there
I still remember the time I heard it out
Didn't really stand out
What the hell's it about
Didn't really think "Whoa, that's rockin'"
Spare single, listening
Fair way to, balance the other side out
I still remember it bein' there
I still remember the time I heard it first
Wasn't really the worst
Was I really averse
Guess I kinda thought, "Well, that's okay"
Flipside to "Roundabout"
Backside, there when you turn it round
I still remember it bein' there
I still remember the way it sounded then
[SOLO]
Spare single, listening
Nice way to, finish the disc with a bang
I still remember it bein' there
I still remember the way it grew on me
Then I started to see
This is how it could be
Made me wanna go buy the album
This is how it could be
