Dancing in Circles Songtext
von Love and Theft

I don′t understand why we do
What we do to each other
According to His word, we're all born
Sisters and brothers

But we lie, and we steal, fight, and we kill
Even though we know the way

Why do we go dancing in circles
When we know it never ends?
We come so close to loving each other
And then we go dancing in circles again

All through the ages we tried to share
This world together
Turning the pages
Pretending we′ll live here forever


But we'll have to face our maker someday
And reap what we've sown all the way

Why do we go dancing in circles
When we know it never ends?
We come so close to loving each other
And then we go dancing in circles again

We know how so
Why can′t we just get it right?
And I pray someday
We′ll overcome all the damage we've done, and we′ll fight

Why do we go dancing in circles
When we know it never ends?
We come so close, so close to living His plan
Loving each other like sisters and brothers
And then we go dancing in circles again, oh yeah
