Round & Round Lyrics

[Intro]
'Round and 'round
'Round and 'round
'Round and 'round

[Verse 1]
You see me standing there and act like you don't know me
But last night, you were callin' me, sayin' you want me
Oh, why you always make me feel like I'm the one that's crazy?
You got my heart racin'
My, my heart racin'

[Pre-Chorus]
Boy, I need you here with me
We can't go on this way
I'm falling hard for you
All I can say

[Chorus]
We're going 'round and 'round
We're never gonna stop goin'
'Round and 'round
We'll never get where we're goin'
'Round and 'round
Well, you're gonna miss me, 'cause I'm gettin' dizzy
Going 'round and 'round and 'round
[Verse 2]
You try to pull me close and whisper in my ear
You always told me lies, I've cried out all my tears
I push my feelings to the side, but then you bring 'em back
Br-bring 'em back, now you got me singing

[Pre-Chorus]
Boy, I need you here with me
We can't go on this way
I'm falling hard for you
All I can say

[Chorus]
We're going 'round and 'round
We're never gonna stop goin'
'Round and 'round
We'll never get where we're goin'
'Round and 'round
Well, you're gonna miss me, 'cause I'm gettin' dizzy
Going 'round and 'round and 'round

[Bridge]
Love me, or love me not
I'm staring at the clock
I pick them flower petals off
And then I watch them drop
Love me, or love me not
I'm staring at the clock
I pick them flower petals off
And then I watch them drop

[Pre-Chorus]
Boy, I need you here with me
I can't go on this way
I'm falling hard for you
All I can say-ay

[Chorus]
‘Round and 'round
We're never gonna stop goin'
'Round and 'round
We'll never get where we're goin'
'Round and 'round
Well, you're gonna miss me, 'cause I'm getting dizzy
Going 'round and 'round and 'round and 'round
We're going 'round and 'round
We're never gonna stop goin'
'Round and 'round
We'll never get where we're goin'
'Round and 'round
Well, you're gonna miss me, 'cause I'm gettin' dizzy
Going 'round and 'round and 'round

[Outro]
Ooh-whoa, ooh-whoa, ooh-whoa
Ooh-whoa, ooh-whoa, ooh-whoa
Ooh-whoa, ooh-whoa, ooh-whoa

Genius Answer

According to Songfacts, song producer Kevin Rudolf explained to Artist Direct the meaning of the song:

It’s actually a song I was writing with Fefe Dobson. We played it for LA Reid [Def Jam CEO]. He thought it was great but it was too dance-y for Fefe, so we gave it to Selena and she loved it. She cut the vocals in Budapest and sent them back. I like Fefe a lot! She’s a good writer, and she’s got a great voice. I also produced Fefe’s single ‘Ghost.’ We had the song sitting around, and I thought it might work for Rihanna at one point because it was a lot dancier. It wasn’t as rock ‘n’ roll as it is now. We played it for Fefe and she loved it though. We added some rock drums and guitars, and it worked for her.
