Dancing In Circles - Love & 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 live and we still

We lie and we kill

Even though we know the way

Why do we go dancin' in circles

When we know it never ends

We come so close to loving each other and then

We go dancin' in circles again

All through the ages we've tried to

Share this world together

We turning the pages

Pretending we'll live here forever

We'll come to face our maker someday

And we'll put his stone on the way

Why do we go dancin' in circles

When we know it never ends

We come so close to loving each other and then

We go dancin' in circles again

We know how so why can't we just get along

And i pray someday we'll overcome

All the damage we've done

And we'll find

Why do we go dancin' in circles

When we know it never ends

We come so close

So close to living his lamb

Loving each other like sisters

And brothers and then

We go dancin' in circles again

Oh yeah
