Catherine's Wheel Lyrics

Like a shot from the dark
In the silence of night
Down the black boulevard
Come the blinding headlights
If it isn't the hit
It's the thrill of the chase
You¡¯ve got to admit
It¡¯s a hell of a place

But when she turns
How she sparkles and burns
And I am bound by her spell
I'm tied to her carousel
Like shooting stars
That scratch away at the dark
I know that my fate is sealed
On Catherine's wheel

So look down the tracks
See how far you¡¯ve come
There's no turning back
The deal is done
Take hold of the rail
It¡¯s a heart-stopping ride
The sparks fall like hail
As she draws me inside

But when she turns
How she sparkles and burns
And I am bound by her spell
I'm tied to her carousel
Like shooting stars
That scratch away at the dark
I know that my fate is sealed
On Catherine's wheel

Oh, the record goes round
The needle goes down
On a forgotten sound

But when she turns
How she sparkles and burns
And I am bound by her spell
I'm tied to her carousel
Like shooting stars
That scratch away at the dark
I know that my fate is sealed
On Catherine's wheel
