Get Go (Full Band)

from Indigo by MAMA CROW

about

this track was written in 2002 and recorded on my first album "Acoustic Soul" (titled without knowledge of India Arie's Album). An acoustic, rootsie version is available on this album...I wanted to record it with a full band to maximize on its funktacular potential...

lyrics

Saliva caught in the back of my throat
Only if I could choke down what you said to me today
I ain't got no season to reinforce your reason
On why you think my love would just waste you away

My life right now is like smoking an empty pipe
Let your the light burn your lips as you inhale
What don't exist- can my life get much more
Hopeless than this- I don't know
Maybe I should wait til tomorrow

So now whatchyou gonna do
When she don't come for you
Lord knows no kinda love
Is going to save you
I just wish that I had something
Better to do than to sit around thinking
Bout where I went wrong with you

Oh what a scene when life can be so clean
It brings you to the right spot at the right time
But only when you're not searching for it
I threw out my rope
It produced no hope
You just choked my hope
And when I pulled back
You let go of the grip you didn't have from the Get Go

I'm so glad I let go

So now whatchyou gonna do
When she don't come for you
Lord knows no kinda love
Is going to save you
I just wish that I had something
Better to do than to sit around thinking
Bout where I went wrong with you

So now whatchyou gonna do
When she don't come for you
Lord knows no kinda love
Is going to save you
I'm glad that I had nothing better to do
Than to sit around writing this little
Old song for you

Round in circles. You had me round in circles.
