Circle Dance Lyrics - Bonnie Raitt

i don't know why it should be so hard 

giving 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 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 hard 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 understood 

time has made things clearer noe 

you did the best you could

now that this has occured to me 

i just want you to know 

i've been too faithful all my life 

it's time to let you go
