Circles 03:32
I messed up, got away from myself Fell in love with a girl who's in love with herself Still it comes to me as a surprise Though I knew all along I was just wasting time Sometimes love just ain't enough You've got to learn when to give it all up Keep thinking you're on the right line Turns out you were just going in circles this time Simple words come from simple people Now we've both said some words at least mine had some meaning and it came fast like a freight train a steaming then summer was here and then soon you were leaving Sometimes love just ain't enough You've got to learn when to give it all up Keep thinking you're on the right line Turns out you were just going in circles this time You walked out of my life like you owned it In someways you did but in someways you stole it And now and then I get a little jealous thinking about your new man and how he's so much better Sometimes love just ain't enough You've got to learn when to give it all up Keep thinking you're on the right line Turns out you were just going in circles this time

Every time we say goodbye, this feeling comes over me I can't seem to find the words, there's no point to try You gave me peace, and you gave me hope Well you gave me something to hold on to Now I, I won't let go… no So don't you feel, and don't you know Don't you want to feel alive 'Cause every day, and every face Well everyone just seems the same But don't let go, no don't let go Go and make a name for yourself Well yesterday seems so far away Does it feel like that to you And all the times you've walked away Well they mean nothing now Just fix your eyes, just fix your eyes on what's ahead Just fix your eyes, fix your eyes on what's ahead So don't you feel, and don't you know Don't you want to feel alive 'Cause every day, and every face Well everyone just seems the same But don't let go, no don't let go Go and make a name for yourself (x2)

Where I go, you cannot go My feet are under me If I don't come back Then your heart is free And you want more than you need And my thoughts are incomplete All my tears are dry And my tongue is weak Train take me away My mind won't you change It's not my choice to make Just keep my love safe I don't trust but I believe That there's truth it's just hard to see So your blindfold faith Is it make believe Train take me away My mind won't you change It's not my choice to make Just keep my love safe Train take me away My mind won't you change It's not my choice to make Train take me away

I'm on an ocean I'm sinking faster It won't be long 'till I'm gone Giant waves that Tower over Please repeat what you said I'm on an ocean I'm sinking faster It won't be long 'till I'm gone Giant waves that Tower over Please repeat what you said Well this can't, be where, it ends Well this can't, be where, it ends Underneath this sky And all of it's clouds I need you here So come down I'm on an island With nobody The tide is coming in My eyes look up and See the same moon As they did last night My feet, sink in, the sand My feet, sink in, the sand Underneath this sky And all of it's clouds I need you here So come down I'm chasing my dreams away Have mercy on me and grace I'm chasing my dreams away Have mercy on me Underneath this sky And all of it's clouds Underneath this sky And all of it's clouds Underneath this sky And all of it's clouds Underneath this sky And all of it's clouds I need you here So come down
