Figure Of Eight (Remastered 2017) Songtext
von Paul McCartney

Well, you′ve got me dancing in a figure of eight
Don't know if I′m coming or going, I'm early or late
Round and round the ring I go
I want to know
I want to know, hey

Why can't we travel a continuous line?
Make love a reliable covenant all the time
Up and down the hills I go
I got to know
I got to know


Is it better to love one another than to go for a walk in the dark?
Is it better to love than to give in to hate?
Yeah, we′d better take good care of each other
Avoid slipping back off the straight and narrow
It′s better by far than getting stuck
In a figure of eight

Well, figure it out for yourself, little girl
It don't go nowhere at all
It′s nothing more than a tape loop in a big dance hall

Oh, now, you got me running in a figure of eight
Don't know if I′m coming or going early or late (early or late)
Round and round I go
I want to know
I want to know

Say, is it better to love one another than to go for a walk in the dark?
Is it better to love than to give in to hate?
Yeah, we'd better take good care of one another and avoid slipping back off the straight and narrow
It′s better by far than getting stuck
In a figure of eight
