"And the seasons, they go 'round and 'round / And the painted ponies go up and down / We're captive on the carousel of time / We can't return, we can only look / Behind from where we came / And go 'round and 'round and 'round / In the circle game"

Joni Mitchell - "The Circle Game" (Joni Mitchell) (1970)

"I am on a lonely road and I am traveling / Traveling, traveling, traveling / Looking for something, what can it be?"
