Luther Vandross - Going In Circles Lyrics






I'm an ever rolling wheel
Without a destination real
And I'm an ever spinning top
Whirling around 'till I drop

[1] - Oh, but what am I to do
My mind is in a whirlpool
Give me a little hope
One small thing to cling to

[2] - You got me going in circles
Oh, around and around I go
Going in circles
Oh, around and around I go
I'm strung out over you

I'm a faceless clock
With timeless hopes that never stop
When I feel that way
You know my soul's at stake

[Repeat 1]

[Repeat 2]

I'm strung out over you( I need you baby)
Uuh, I need (I need you baby)
Call me (I need you baby)
I need baby, my baby, my baby
My baby, my baby girl

[Ad lib until fade]

Luther Vandross Going In Circles Comments
  1. D.... A....

    Luther vandross did a perfect job

  2. P.... a....

    I love Luther but forgot this was him and it just popped in my head. My fav by him is probably "Stop to love". Or maybe "The power of love". This song is ok and not my fav but it popped in my head like I said.

  3. E.... F....

    You can understand this song in so many ways.

  4. M.... H....

    Actions always always speak louder than words. After all I' m from the Show Me State! Lol

  5. T.... B....

    My beloved don't worry about your soul God got your soul and mine also 🙏

  6. P.... e....

    Ooh simply fantastic

  7. a.... j....

    Luther vandross was one of the greatest singer ever.

  8. N.... L....

    It is the sincere desire of my heart my heart to not be an offense to ANYONE. But I HAVE TO SAY [because it's in my heart to express it] that with all that's happen NOW in our nation: this man left a shining legacy in this world. NO ONE had a voice like Luther Vandross. NO ONE!!!!! And he stayed TRUE to the voice that GOD had given him.

    He'd taken and re-did the songs of other who'd come before him. And he was gifted to be able to take those same song to a level that "artists" are still trying to attain!!! THAT is amazing to me!!!!

  9. A.... J....

    I miss Luther😓

  10. P.... ....

    Every song he done covered, he owned it!

  11. S.... i....

    I agree, excellent remake. Beautiful!

  12. G.... B....

    Luther takes away any bad vibe from just listening to his songs true artist of all time 2019 and beyond

  13. d.... d....

    Luther and charlie wilson sing this song like el hefe bosses. Which one is the best?i got to c if a woman compares to them.

  14. M.... S....

    I am ten years old and I am listening to Luthervandross

  15. M.... S....

    Melonie likes your music

  16. S.... S....

    I thought the Gap band had the best version of this song. What do you guys think?!

  17. p.... ....

    With this song
    1)Gap Band
    2)Fifth Dimension
    3)Luther (no last name needed)
    Only my opinion. Charlie Wilson makes me cry.

  18. s.... ....

    this song is so good.. i love this version gap bands version and the original in each their own way.

  19. G.... L....

    Sing to my soul. I'm thankful for my husband Walter. He puts me in another state of mind that only he can.

  20. K.... M....

    3:43!!!!! Lu Lu!!!!

  21. J.... R....

    A great cover of the original

  22. T.... V....

    it's funny Luther got 13 songs I didn't know or realize that they were remakes. He doesn't imitate the original versions but puts his own spin on them. Even when he was on the Electric company on Sesame street

  23. T.... C....

    Nah know one cab touch thr Friends Of Distinctions original version" not even Lurther!

    T.... C....

    The Counselor Ace Agreed, Still perfect but Friends of Distinction is more perfect if there can be such a thing. For me I I think it's FODs lead singer's deep voice when he sings the line 'Going in Circles'
    Spine tingling!

  24. R.... C....

    This is a Lovers song which i know so well . My man has me backed up aganist the wall. I need him so badly .But he is more doubled minded then i am. And the only thing i want and need is for him to asure me that we will be together always work out any problems that arise.

  25. G.... M....

    I did not know Luther Vandross sung this too! Very good rendition! I love it!

  26. �.... �....

    classic music. 🎶

  27. M.... E....

    classic song, classic singer

  28. J.... J....

    May his soul rest he will be remembered

  29. L.... B....

    Love the original, but this is sexy, nuanced and beautiful

    L.... B....

    L Benson sexy and elegant

  30. k.... s....

    Gap Bands' version is more climatic.

  31. A.... K....

    Feelings feelings😣

  32. H.... ....

    You black American don't know how gifted and talented you all are . You let other races dehumanized you all so you walk around with that weight. Not all but too many. Very talented set of people in so many areas but singing. WOW! Instrument playing, song writing.

    H.... ....

    WE KNOW WHUT TIME IT IS.....BELIEVE ME, WE KNOW....BUT EVERYBODY HAS GIFTS TO GIVE, AND UNTIL EACH AND EVERY HUMAN REALIZES THAT, WE WILL CONTINUE ON THIS DESTRUCTIVE PATH!

  33. J.... W....

    These speakers make this song, the instrumentation and etc, sound magnificent and loud enough for audio!

  34. j.... m....

    Awww sucky sucky na bed time rip Luther he sing it to the core

  35. P.... V....

    Luther’s health issues could have easily been cured, his doctor needs to be hung by his balls🧐

  36. a.... o....

    🔥🔥🔥🔥 cool ♪ ♫ ♬ ♫ 🎶🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 keep'em going strong ♪ ♫ ♬ ♫ 🎶 (R)@

  37. P.... L....

    Ain't nothing more worst in this world, than to be WITHOUT the one you love. Spinning, strung out, going in circles. #ComeSeeAboutMe ⚘ Luther killed it.

  38. M.... B....

    Luther made this song his own...

  39. m.... p....

    This song fore most my favorite song... don't care how old it's the BEST....#realtalk

  40. P.... H....

    It seems impossible to listen without a profound sadness to this mesmerising talented soul GONE TO SOON and forever missed.

    P.... H....

    Paul Hardman I agree!!!

  41. M.... R....

    SIMPLY GOING CRAZY OVER YOU BABY.

  42. E.... I....

    One of the best covers! Legendary Luther Vandross put his stamp on this song!

  43. H.... I....

    I hope y'all know he's singing about WEED!!!!!???? ☝✊

  44. R.... S....

    RIP. We will keep your memory alive thru your music.

    R.... S....

    Ray Serna Great Jamz:)

  45. M.... T....

    Best version of this Song! RIP Luther

  46. M.... B....

    CANT SENSE YOU ALL THE WAY
    BUT TIMELESS HOPES THAT NEVER STOP

    M.... B....

    Ya california purto prince

  47. G.... S....

    Call me crazy, but I actually like Luther's version better than the orginal!! His voice........ Rest in peace

    G.... S....

    Luther vandross was more polished singer. People say this and that about him but he could sang to anybody or color. He was a person I wish I would have seen in concert. He had a way about him that made him different. Luther had a first and last name but I was called him luutha. Peace

    G.... S....

    Luther vandross make "clean" version, more standaedized version.

    G.... S....

    Grumpy Smurf agree, and Isaac Hayes version too

    G.... S....

    You aren't crazy because I love this version too.

    G.... S....

    Not surprising. Like I like Michael McDonald's "Ain't no mountain high enough" version better than the original. I like Tina Turner's version of proud Mary better (not to take from CCR I do like them). And Jose Feliciano's light my fire better than the doors (who I also love but that song just isn't done best by them lol to me).

  48. M.... B....

    download the karaoke version xo

  49. M.... ....

    I know they're other renditions of this song. This is my favorite by far. Luther put his all in this song. Oh! How I miss this kinda music.

    M.... ....

    Yes, I agree. This is taking a great song adding another level of expression and it's just beautiful...

  50. W.... B....

    I agree Gina

    gap band has a version of this song and it's great too. well done guys

    i.... j....

    the original 1969 priceless going to Isaac Hayes now

  59. d.... t....

    Like Dr. King and Stevie, Luther can be put into a neat box to where he is clichéd, however this cover allows him to do what he does best and highlight his artistry. The picture is wonderful as well showing him as an everyman instead of the perfect suit pompadour. I like it.

    d.... t....
