Circle Dance Lyrics


Bonnie Raitt Circle Dance

I dont' know why it should be so hard
Givin' up this circle dance
Worn out steps from long ago
don't give love a chance
It's a bitter heirloom handed down
these twisted parts we play
I'm not her and you're not him
It just comes out that way
Can't go back to make things right
(though I) wish I'd understood
time has made things clearer now
We did the best we could
I'll be home soon, that's what you'd say
And a little kid believes
After a while I learned that love
Must be a thing that leaves
I tried so ahrd just to hold you near
Was as good as I could be
Even when I had you here
You stayed so far from me
Can't go back to make things right
(though I) wish I'd understood
Time has made things clearer now
You did the best you could
Now that this has occurred to me
I just wanted you to know
I've been too faithful all my life
It's time to let you go
