Circles Go On Forever

You drew a circle instead of a heart

Said hearts break but circles go on forever,

Said you'd had your heart shattered too many times

"Can’t chance it being broken again

If I’m gonna fall, I need something that lasts

So I’m drawing circles ‘cause of my past

I don’t trust love like I did back then"

You laughed but your eyes were hiding storms

You said “I’ve got rules now when it comes to love”

I drew a circle instead of a heart

'Cause hearts break

But circles go on forever

If I'm in yours and you're in mine

We don't fade

We just hold on together"

Love ain't perfect, it comes and it scars

So I colored us in

Right there in the middle

Of a circle instead of a heart

I could feel your fear like it was mine

Still I slid my hand in yours and tried

I said

Well I’ve had mine busted bleedin’ too

Still I’m laying it down in your hands

If we’re gonna fall, let’s fall all the way

Let your circle let my heart in

You drew a circle instead of a heart

But I’m praying it’s the shape we’re living in

We drew circles instead of hearts

'Cause hearts break

Circles go on forever

If I'm in yours and you're in mine

We don't fade

We just hold on together

Love ain't perfect, it comes and it scars

So I colored us in

Right there in the middle

Of a circle instead of a heart

Years gone by, that paper's worn

Fridge door rattles every storm

We've had raised voices, slamming doors

Slept back to back on different floors

But every fight, each restless night

I see that ring of ink and light

Baby, we bend, yeah, we've seen hard parts

But we don't crack like those old hearts

Draw a circle instead of a heart

'Cause hearts break

But circles go on forever

If you're in theirs and they're in yours

You won't fade

You'll just hold on together

Life gets heavy, it pulls you apart

So color love in

Right there in the middle

Draw a circle instead of a heart
