Whirl Around from Resolution by Mehmet Ali Sanlıkol & Whatsnext?

Oh, I walked alone on a lonely, empty road
So I walked alone I did not know…
I didn’t know why I mourned
till I realized what I felt
No, I should not cry but,
If I whirl around then I know

A nightingale spoke to me
Now you are not alone but,
torn apart from yourself
So I still walk alone with a rose in my hand
Now I don’t cry no more but,
If I whirl around then I know

***

Then I walked into a garden of tulips so charming
And I walked alone drunken by Love…
I didn’t know what made me
feel much bigger than what I am
Yes, I should keep going cause
If I whirl around then I know

Why does a moth keep circling
and circling around fire,
burning from the flames of desire
So I still walk alone with a rose in my hand
Now I don’t cry no more but,
If I whirl around then I know
