Lines & Circles is the third studio album released by American boy band O-Town, and the first to be released by the band since their reunion as a four-piece in 2011. The album was recorded over the course of three years, with a number of writers and producers, including Ryan Tedder.
The album was initially due for release on August 3, 2014, but was delayed by three weeks to August 25, due to final touches being made to the production. The band released a mock video on YouTube which claimed the reason for the delay was due to band member Erik Michael Estrada changing the cover art to resemble the cover for the single "Anaconda" by Nicki Minaj. The lead single from the album, "Skydive", was released on July 27, 2014, after being pushed back from the initial release date of June 19, 2014.
The band officially reformed as a four-piece in 2011, without original band member Ashley Parker Angel. Angel declined a return to the group, despite being approached by more than two of the band members. The band released an official statement which said that they "understood Ashley's decision", and "will continue as a band without his input", and "wish him all of the best in his future ventures". The band later announced the album's release date to be August 4, 2014 in a video via their official YouTube account.
Oh, I know You're seven hours behind We're living in separate times How did my heart get so cold?
It's hard to live with you But I can't live without you, my love We argue too much and somehow we lost touch And now it's all gone Baby, you know
Sometimes love just ain't enough And it's hard to admit when it's over When you hit a wall in your heart And you're watching it all fall apart Sometimes love just ain't enough If you've got the world on your shoulders The road that you're walking's too rough Sometimes love just ain't enough
Wide awake, thinking of moments we shared Can't get you out of my head No one can love me like you I try to be strong but I know you're long gone and it hurts I talk about calling but I know all I've got are these empty words Baby, I know
Sometimes love just ain't enough And it's hard to admit when it's over When you hit a wall in your heart And you're watching it all fall apart Sometimes love just ain't enough If you've got the world on your shoulders And the road that you're walking's too rough Sometimes love just ain't enough
Sometimes I wonder if it's worth all the pain If our love still remains Can we try, one more time? Baby, you know sometimes love just ain't enough And it's hard to admit when it's over, it's over When you hit a wall in your heart, in your heart baby You're watching it all fall apart Sometimes love just ain't enough, enough for you If you've got the world on your shoulders And the road that you're walking's too rough
Sometimes love just ain't enough Watch it all fall down, watch it all fall down I'm never letting go now, never letting go now Oh never never no, will never let you go now Oh, sometimes love just ain't enough
