Lyrics

Circle the Dark

[Verse 1]

Little thing

I forget where the promise starts

Singing like a country star

Standing by your man and all

[Verse 2]

Sail away

We can find a better way

Without you, I have no place to stay

I'm just circling in the dark

[Chorus]

Am I longing for something to remain

When it's time to move on?

New buildings are going up every day

Soon this place will be gone

They take it all and they give it a glossy touch

You like it so much

They're chasing our dreams right into their hands

[Verse 3]

Little thing

Tell me where the promise lies

Were you gonna let me know?

Were you even going to try?

[Verse 4]

Little thing

You tell me that life's not fair

When you gonna let me know

You're the reason why?

[Chorus]

Am I longing for something to remain

When it's time to move on?

New buildings are going up every day

Soon this place will be gone

They take it all and they give it a glossy touch

You like it so much

They're chasing our dreams right into their hands

[Outro]

Ooh baby, don't let it die

Ooh baby, don't let it die

I know that you and I can make it alright

Ooh baby

Ooh baby, don't let it die

Ooh baby, don't let it die

I know that you and I can make it alright

Ooh baby

You and I can make it alright

You and I can make it alright
