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 dancin' in circles?
When we know it never ends
We come so close to loving each other and then
We go dancin' in circles again

All through the ages we've tried to share this world together
We turning the pages
Pretending we'll live here forever
We'll come to face our Maker someday
And we'll put his stone on the way

Why do we go dancin' in circles?
When we know it never ends
We come so close to loving each other and then
We go dancin' in circles again

We know how so why can't we just get along
And I pray someday we'll overcome
All the damage we've done
And we'll find

Why do we go dancin' in circles?
When we know it never ends
We come so close
So close to living His lamb
Loving each other like sisters and brothers and then
We go dancin' in circles again

Oh, yeah
