Spinning The Wheel Lyrics

Cover art for Spinning The Wheel lyrics by George Michael

The singer is complaining about his partner who's not home even at 5 in the morning. He's watching the clock. He's fed up. He's had enough of living with insecurity, and has reached a point where he wants to take a decision to break up rather than watching his partner 'spin the wheel' : in other words playing with his life. He 'reprimands' his lover about being careless and expresses his fear that s/he will bring some danger right home. At 6, his lover hasn't even called... In his mind, they are two people standing in the rain. Asks himself about this love where his partner is 'playing with his life' but begging him to give him a chance. At a point where he has to make a decision.. he is negotiating with himself.
