Goapele - Catch 22 lyrics

Nobody knows what I go through Indecisions made me pa**ive They say I want my cake and I want to eat it too Less satisfied if I don't, consequences when I do These lessons, they lead me on my way But when company is tempting me, I'm turned around But I might wanna go that way, Don't wanna go that way Well, it's a catch 22 Damned if I don't, Damned if I do Yes, it's a catch 22 Damned if I don't, Damned if I do How many times does it take to learn just one thing, 'cause I keep ending up here And I'm not a scientist so I just keep on praying that I won't Keep getting the same results each day I said that I can't be with you But when you turn away I pull back your hands to stay (your hands to stay) So many days turn to years That brought us here And we (shied) through time without too many tears But we still made decisions creating divisions So many contradictions, Why didn't we listen? Well, it's a catch 22(catch 22) Damned if I don't, Damned if I do Yes, it's a catch 22 Damned if I don't, Damned if I do (I'm damned if I don't, I'm damned if I do) 'Cause when I see you looking at her I can't stand it, my eyes can't conceive You gave her the smile you gave to me I love you selfishly I can feel so strongly Oh, how you (throw) me But still you know me Oh, you know me Yes, it's a catch 22, Damned if I don't, Damned if I do (damned if I do) Yes, it's a catch 22, (catch 22) Damned if I don't, Damned if I do (I'm damned if I don't, I'm damned if I do) To hell with all the promises we made, The boundaries, the pain I don't care who's wrong or right Let's just ignore that tonight, I don't wanna fight Where you lead me I'll follow I won't stress on tomorrow 'cause I miss you like the moon misses the sky, The waves miss the sand, The leaves miss the breeze flowin' by So come to me easy, 'cause I know you can please me But it's a catch 22....
