Gotta Get A Hold
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Maybe all these years there's been an angel on my shoulder
Coulda been you up here and me down there
Saw a face in a passing train who looked just like you today
So much still left undone, so much left to say
I've tried in vain to picture you
In a place beyond the clouds
But if i believed we'd meet again
I swear that i'd be there with you by now
Gotta get a hold of myself
Gotta get a grip on the situation
Ever since i've had to learn to live without you
Gotta get a hold of myself
Gotta get the best of the desperation
Gotta keep myself together
Whatever i do
It's a lonely road when you've nothing to believe in
There's just one too many things you can't explain
Is someone moving things, is my mind playing tricks on me
Is it a sign from behind the shroud of mistery
They say you're up there waiting
Still i don't see how
'cos if i believed we'd meet again
I swear that i'd be there with you by now
Gotta get a hold of myself
Gotta get a grip on the situation
Ever since i've had to learn to live without you
Gotta get a hold of myself
Gotta get the best of the desperation
Gotta keep myself together
Whatever i do
