Circles – Riley Pearce

We had just a flicker from a lamp post
That we had high hopes, it was our reason for wanting change
And that feeling in the light though
We kept our eyes closed and we dreamed of better days

And there’s no denying
That I’ll get lost

Did you know that’s what the signs said
Oh where the tides end the shore comes colliding
I’m just waiting for a straight line
‘Cause when it bends I lose track of my timing

And there’s no denying
That I’ll get lost
So hold me
And keep me from going in circles
‘Cause I can’t close in on the lights that leave at the end of this hallway

Oh, I know there’s something out there
But will I know where or will I let it just pass me by
Always getting through the mountains
But I see crowds and all the faces are left behind

And there’s no denying
That I’ll get lost
So hold me
And keep me from going in circles
‘Cause I can’t close in on the lights that leave at the end of this hallway
So hold me
And keep me from going in circles
‘Cause I can’t close in on the lights that leave at the end of this hallway

Don’t tell me where you’ll go, hoping that I’ll follow
Don’t tell me what I wanna know
Just tell me what I need
Don’t tell me where you’ll go, hoping that I’ll follow
Don’t tell me what I wanna know
Just tell me what I need

So hold me
And keep me from going in circles
‘Cause I can’t close in on the lights that leave at the end of this hallway
So hold me
And keep me from going in circles
‘Cause I can’t close in on the lights that leave at the end of this hallway

How long will it take me to
How long will it take me to get out of this darkness
And find the lights that leave at the end of this hallway
