I don't understand why we do what we do to each other   According to His word we're all born sisters and brothers   But we lie and we steal, fight and we kill   Even though we know the way      Why do we go dancing in circles when we know it never ends?   We come so close to loving each other   And then we go dancing in circles again      All through the ages we tried to share this world together   Turning the pages, pretending we'll live here forever   But we'll have to face our maker someday   And reap what we've sown all the way      Why do we go dancing in circles when we know it never ends?   We come so close to loving each other   And then we go dancing in circles again      We know how so why can't we just get it right?   And I pray someday we'll overcome   All the damage we've done and we'll fight      Why do we go dancing in circles when we know it never ends?   We come so close, so close to living His plan   Loving each other like sisters and brothers   And then we go dancing in circles again, oh yeah
