| When I was a kid I made a promise to myself, |
| To get me all the finer things in life, |
| I’ve been on a mission |
| Since the day that I was born, |
| But nothing comes without a sacrifice. |
| All that I could think of |
| Was how happy I would be |
| When I got everything that I was due |
| I got to where I wanted |
| But finally I see |
| The only thing I really want is you. |
| Earth, wind and fire |
| It’s bringing me down, you’re my only desire. |
| Earth, wind and fire |
| Only your love can take me higher. |
| I’ve been at the crossroads |
| Where you go to sell your soul |
| I thought the deal was I would get it all |
| I didn’t see it coming, |
| I was moving way too fast |
| That’s what happens when you’re on a roll |
| I hope I’ll be forgiven |
| The mistakes that I have made |
| But certain things can never be undone |
| I don’t know where I’m going, |
| Or where I’m heading to |
| All I know is where I’m coming from |
| No, I won’t give it away |
| If I could go back in time, I would make a change |
| No price is too high to pay |
| If only for a night, if only for a day |
| Earth, wind and fire |
| It’s bringing me down, you’re my only desire. |
| Earth, wind and fire |
| Only your love can take me higher. |
| If I can’t have you |
| Then I don’t want nothing at all |
| I need you there |
| To catch me if I should fall |
| If I can’t have you |
| Then I don’t want nothing at all |
| I need you there |
| To catch me if I should fall |
| Earth, wind and fire |
| It’s bringing me down, you’re my only desire. |
| Earth, wind and fire |
| Only your love can take me higher. |
| Earth, wind and fire |
| It’s bringing me down, you’re my only desire. |
| Earth, wind and fire |
| Only your love can take me higher. |
