Lyrics
Why Do We Take It So Far?
Verse 1
Talk about the circle of life
And I?ll tell you about
The cycle of our love baby
Trying to make everything right
Eats someone away
When the others not even trying
Bridge
?Til the day I take my last breath
I?ll be calling out your name
Nothing will kill my flame
I?ll burn again
Chorus
Why do we take it so far?
Why do we always end up where we started?
Even though I?ve tried so hard
You won?t let me in- Just let me in
Verse 2
Talk about commitment I know
What it?s like to invest
Your life, but regret nothing
Look around, the world is evolving
In spring everything
Seems to grow, but we don?t
Bridge
Chorus
Middle 8
If being with you make me whole
When I?m with you why do I feel so alone
Maybe I should let you go
All over again
