Get up, don't get up
|
I beg you to sit tight
|
Sweet girl, I'll be a ghost, girl
|
Forget it, I am fine
|
|
If anything, a witnessing
|
Is all I needed that night
|
|
Until I get what I'm to get
|
He'll keep being compelled to flee
|
Until I out his false story
|
He'll keep playing the guy who leaves
|
|
Brother, oh, brother
|
Solo you did bust out
|
All I knew was you didn't invite me
|
So begin seeds of self-doubt
|
|
There is nothing as harrowing
|
As how I translate facts
|
|
Until I get what I'm to get
|
He'll keep being compelled to flee
|
Until I out his false story
|
He'll keep playing the guy who leaves
|
|
Baby, oh, partner
|
How well you've played this part
|
Similar, oh, how familiar
|
Reluctant truth you impart
|
|
And how you served necessity
|
Repeat 'til she sees light
|
|
Until I get what I'm to get
|
He'll keep being compelled to flee
|
Until I out his false story
|
I'll keep blaming the guy who leaves
|
