Round & Around

by Alana Davis

on Blame It On Me (1997)

Another Sunday
Another one way road away from home
I keep thinking one day
I'm gonna wake up far from what I've known
There's a man he's going to cheat me if he can
He's looking for someone to scam
Here I am with my guts out in my hand
Looking for someplace to stand

It's hard to hold on to what you've found
When what comes around always goes around
But here we go round and around on the outside
Do we know how to hold on with our hands tied

Another Sunday ain't no change in how we're livin now
I keep hoping one day
Maybe Monday will be will be different somehow
Cause in the end there are lovers, there are friends
There are liars who pretend
They'll cheat you if they can
Seems to be their master plan
To leave you with an empty hand

And it's hard to hold on to what you've found
When what comes around always goes around
Here we go round and around on the outside
Do we know how to hold on with our hands tied

Here we go turning around on the inside
Do we know how to hold on, can we survive
Work for so long and we try to be strong
Time just keeps moving us along
It's hard to be right when everything's wrong
But we've got to keep on

It's hard to hold on to what you've found
When what comes around always goes around
Here we go round and around on the outside
Do we know how to hold on with our hands tied
Here we go turning around on the inside
Do we know how to hold on, can we survive
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey hey
