00:00Round, like a circle in a spiral, like a wheel within a wheel, never-ending, no beginning, on an ever-spinning reel, like a snowball down a mountain, or a carnival balloon, like a carousel that's turning, running rings around the moon,
00:30like a clock whose hands are sweeping past the minutes of its face, and the world is like an apple, whirling silently in space, like the circles that you'll find in the windows of your mind.
00:53Like a tunnel that you'll follow, to a tunnel of its own, down a hollow to a cavern, where the sun is never shown, like a door that keeps revolving in a half-forgotten dream,
01:18or the ripples from a pillow someone tosses in a stream, like a clock whose hands are sweeping past the minutes of its face, and the world is like an apple, whirling silently in space, like the circles that you'll find in the windows of your mind.
01:48Keeps that jangle in your pocket, wears the jangle in your head, why did summer go so quickly, was it something that you said?
02:05Lovers walk along the shore, leave their footprints in the sand, is the sound of this drumming just the fingers on your hand, or just hanging in the hallway, or a fragment of a song,
02:25every man that names and faces, but to whom do they belong, when you knew that it was over, you were suddenly aware, that the autumn leaves were turning to the color of who's hair.
02:48Like a circle in a spiral, like a wheel within the wheel, never ending, no beginning, are they ever spinning real, as the images unwind, like the circles that you'll find in the windows of your mind.
03:18Like a circle in a spiral, like a wheel within the wheel, never ending, no beginning, no beginning, are they ever spinning real, as the images unwind, like the circles that you'll find in the windows of your mind.
03:49Four months.
03:50Four?
03:51Oh no, it's been a bit longer, because I started in Brisbane, after I left the group that I was working with in Surfers Paradise, and I just did dances and things around in Brisbane, and then I came down to Melbourne, and had some really beautiful news that I was going to have a song written for me.
04:09Great.
04:10And now I'm just sticking to television and trying to get as much telly as I can.
04:14You've done some IMTs?
04:15Mm-hmm.
04:16Beautiful.
04:17I've signed you again.
04:18Oh, that's great.
04:19It's nice to hear.
04:20Colleen, we wish you well, because the scene for Girl Singers has been pretty dead for a long, long time.
04:24Oh, right.
04:25We hope you can spark it up.
04:26I hope so.
04:27Come back and see us soon.
