Story behind the song

"Within the circles of our lives
 we dance the circles of the years,
 the circles of the seasons
 within the circles of the years,
 the cycles of the moon
 within the circles of the seasons,
 the circles of our reasons
 within the cycles of the moon.

 Again, again we come and go,
 changed, changing. Hands
 join, unjoin in love and fear,
 grief and joy. The circles turn,
 each giving into each, into all.
 Only music keeps us here,

 each by all the others held.
 In the hold of hands and eyes
 we turn in pairs, that joining,
 joining each to all again.

 And then we turn aside, alone,
 out of the sunlight gone

 into darker circles of return." ~ Wendell Berry, Song (4)
