Circles

This ol' boy lived down the road from me
Used to drive a beat-up Dodge
Well, he showed up drunk as hell one night
Parked in my garage
I had to ask him how'd he get so lost
That you can't find your way home

He said, "I've been runnin' 'round in circles so long
I didn't know where else to go
I've been runnin' 'round in circles so long
I didn't know where else to go"

See, his wife she left him
And took the kids
And he never was the same
I guess they were all that he'd been livin' for
And he shouldered all the blame
Well, he always wondered what made her give up
God, if he'd only known

She'd be runnin' 'round in circles so long
She didn't know where else to go
She'd been runnin' 'round in circles so long
She didn't know where else to go

Well, this ol' boy lived down the road from me
Today they laid him in the ground
He drove that ol' Dodge right off the river
Without even slowin' down
And he left a letter he wrote to his ol' man
Said, "I just lost control"

And I've been runnin' 'round in circles so long
I didn't know where else to go
And I've been runnin' 'round in circles so long
I didn't know where else to go
