When I was a kid I made a promise to myself
To get me all the finer things in life
Ive 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 would do, yeah
I got to where I wanted but finally I see
The only thing I really want is you
Earth, wind and fire
Its bringing me down, youre my only desire
Earth, wind and fire
Only your love can take me higher
Ive been at the crossroads where youre gonna sell your soul
I thought the deal was I would get it all
I didnt see it coming I was moving way too fast
Thats what happens when youre on a roll
I hope Ill be forgiven the mistakes that I have made
But certain things can never be undone
I dont know where Im going or where Im heading to
All I know is where Im coming from
Now I will give it away
If I could go back in time Ill make a change
No classes to hide or pay (that line is so wrong, sorry ppl!)
If only for a night
If only for a day
Earth, wind and fire
Its bringing me down, youre my only desire
Earth, wind and fire
Only your love can take me higher
If I cant have you then I dont want nothing at all
I need you there to catch me if I should fall
If I cant have you then I dont want nothing at all
I need you there to catch me if I should fall
Earth, wind and fire
Its bringing me down, youre my only desire
Earth, wind and fire
Only your love can take me higher
Yea-eh-yea...
Earth, wind and fire
Its bringing me down, youre my only desire
Earth, wind and fire
Only your love can take me higher
