#6 Dizzy (Tommy Roe) 👍🏼

Lyrics:
Dizzy
I’m so dizzy, my head is spinning
Like a whirlpool, it never ends
And it’s you, girl, making it spin
You’re making me dizzy🪄
First time that I saw you, girl, I knew that I just had to make you mine
But it’s so hard to talk to you with fellas hanging round you all the time
I want you for my sweet pet
But you keep playing hard to get
I’m going around in circles all the time🪄
Dizzy
I’m so dizzy, my head is spinning
Like a whirlpool, it never ends
And it’s you, girl, making it spin
You’re making me dizzy🪄
I finally got to talk to you and I told you just exactly how I felt
Then I held you close to me and kissed you and my heart began to melt
Girl, you’ve got control of me
‘Cause I’m so dizzy I can’t see
I need to call a doctor for some help🪄
Dizzy
I’m so dizzy, my head is spinning
Like a whirlpool, it never ends
And it’s you, girl, making it spin
You’re making me dizzy🪄
My head is spinning
Like a whirlpool, it never ends
And it’s you, girl, making it spin
You’re making me dizzy
You’re making me dizzy

Sensory Awakening

“Nothing can cure the soul but the senses, just as nothing can cure the senses but the soul.”

Oscar Wilde (Irish Author and Poet; December 30th, 1865 to January 18th, 1936)

“We were created to experience, interpret, and savor the world through our senses–our ability to smell, taste, hear, touch, see, and intuit.”

“…to perceive the world with all its gushing beauty and terror, right on our pulses.”

Diane Ackerman (American Poet and Essayist; October 7th, 1948)

“…to begin to understand the gorgeous fever that is consciousness, we must try to understand the senses. The senses don’t just make sense of life in bold or subtle acts of clarity, they tear reality apart into vibrant morsels and reassemble them into a meaningful pattern.”

Diane Ackerman (American Poet and Essayist; October 7th, 1948)

“If we had keen vision and feeling for all ordinary human life it would be like hearing the grass grow and the squirrel’s heart beat, and we should die of the roar which lies on the other side of silence. As it is, the quickest of us walks about well wadded with stupidity.”

George Eliot (Mary Ann Evans) (English Novelist and Poet; November 22nd, 1819 to December 22nd, 1880)

“I have found ever since beginning my intentional journey in BEingness, all my senses have improved and become more acute. I am loving how wonderful our human protein sacks are to experience this beautiful world!”

–Ban Breathnach, Sarah. “Simple Abundance: A Daybook of Comfort and Joy”. Grand Central Publishing. (1976). Kindle Page 127 to 128 of 501.
