Lyrics
Balance
Copyright c 2004-2005 Eric Henderson
I know you'd leave me in a moment
And know you'd feel bad
But you'd not be losin' all that much
Maybe that's what makes me so sad
It's time for me to ponder
All the irons I've got in the fire
Differentiate, between love and hate
Between need and desire
I need balance
Balance in my life
I need balance
`Cause I'm way out of balance tonight
There's a lot out in the world
That I just don't understand
I can't get my finger on the pulse
Of the mind of my fellow man
I need balance
Balance in my life
I need balance
`Cause I'm way out of balance tonight
Baby I'm way out of balance
And I'm so confused
Yes I'm way out of balance
And I ain't got a clue
I need balance
Balance in my life
I need balance
`Cause I'm way out of balance tonight
I need balance
Balance in my life
I need balance
`Cause I'm way out of balance tonight
I need balance
Balance in my life
I need balance
`Cause I'm way out of balance tonight
