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.
