Get It Straight

GET IT STRAIGHT

Opened up the window shade and looked out in the sky

Nothing there but blue to meet the eye

Crawled back into bed and pulled the covers over head

Let another weekend pass me by

I want to know, why does time go so slow

Since she’s been gone it takes all I’ve got just to carry on

I’ve been waiting by the mailbox I’ve been checking my machine

Thinking every day she’ll try to get in touch with me

Praying for a miracle some lucky twist of fate

Holding out some hope it’s not too late

Maybe if I knew just what went wrong I could set it straight

I know I’m going to see her in some unexpected place

Our paths are going to have to cross one day

She’ll realize she’s still in love and I’m the one she’s dreaming of

If I could only see her face to face

I’d melt her heart like I did at the start

But now that she’s gone it takes all I’ve got just to carry on

I’ve been waiting by the mailbox I’ve been checking my machine

Thinking every day she’ll try to get in touch with me

Praying for a miracle some lucky twist of fate

Holding out some hope it’s not too late

Maybe if I knew just what went wrong I could set it straight

I’ll wait what else can I do?

It’s just a matter of time ‘till we’re back together

I’ve been waiting by the mailbox I’ve been checking my machine

Thinking every day she’ll try to get in touch with me

Praying for a miracle some lucky twist of fate

Holding out some hope it’s not too late

Maybe if I knew just what went wrong I could set it straight

Baby forgive and forget it, whatever it is I regret it

It’s just a set back, you can bet that

If you let me know I know I can get it straight
