[VERSE 1]
Gettin' on bein' off
If I had a switch I'd flip it
I'll say I'll change I'll say I'll try
You'll change your mind I'm sure of it
You got a soft spot for me
I can see it in your eyes
(You can see he just wants you)
I need you
You can fix me greatly
I can count on you baby

[CHORUS]
I get by when I'm goin' slow
I dig deeper from the bottom of my heart
Oh boy I've been so confused
Oh man I shoulda kept you
In my sights then I would still have you girl

[VERSE 2]
Gettin' up and bein' down
Five AM and restless
Wonder how you're doin' now
And if you've made any progress?
I can feel your touch now
I can see you when I close my eyes
(You can see he just wants you)
I need you
You can hold me steady
When I can't stand baby

[BRIDGE]
Why take it so hard?
You're just getting older and older
Why do you take so long to get over?
Just get up and go

[CHORUS]
I get by when I'm goin' slow
I dig deeper from the bottom of my heart
Oh boy I've been so confused
Oh man I shoulda kept you
(In your sights man)
Oh man I shoulda kept you
(Too bad you're blind man)
