[Verse]
Loving you is like running a race
With no way to ever win first place
I start strong with the sound of your gun
But I’m dodging bullets as I run
[Verse]
If I buy you this then you want that
Changing your mind at the drop of a hat
I always do everything you say
And no matter what I always stay
[Chorus]
You’ve got me running in circles
That’s all that I can do
I’m running in circles
Trying to keep up with you
You’ve got me running in circles
Because you know I’m your fool
I just keep running in circles
At times these games can be cruel
You’ve got me running in circles
That’s all that I can do
Running and running and running…
That’s all I can do
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse]
When I think I have you figured out
You will change and I’d better watch out
One day I go from having it all
To being on the edge about to fall
[Verse]
Every time I take one step forward
I end up falling three steps back
Trying hard to run in a straight line
But I’m stuck on a circular track
[Chorus]
You’ve got me running in circles
That’s all that I can do
I’m running in circles
Trying to keep up with you
You’ve got me running in circles
Because you know I’m your fool
I just keep running in circles
At times these games can be cruel
You’ve got me running in circles
That’s all that I can do
Running and running and running…
That’s all I can do
[Guitar Solo]
[Bridge]
I feel like I’m in a race
With one foot nailed to the floor
No matter how hard I run
I end up back where I was before
[Chorus]
You’ve got me running in circles
That’s all that I can do
I’m running in circles
Trying to keep up with you
You’ve got me running in circles
Because you know I’m your fool
I just keep running in circles
At times these games can be cruel
You’ve got me running in circles
That’s all that I can do
Running and running and running…
That’s all I can do
[Final Chorus]
You’ve got me running in circles
That’s all that I can do
I’m running in circles
Trying to keep up with you
You’ve got me running in circles
Because you know I’m your fool
I just keep running in circles
At times these games can be cruel
You’ve got me running in circles
That’s all that I can do
Running and running and running…
That’s all I can do
