Gettin' Ready

(album: Lights Out - 1977)

You said, that was that but this is it
How were you to make the pieces fit
Into a plan to start a new life?
Friends pat your back, then stab you with a knife

I must be blind, I'm getting ready to be defined
No loose connections 'cause it feels right
I'm getting ready to hit the line

Can you feel me inside and out?
I'm just waiting for you
'Cause it's alright
Now I know just what I want to do

I must be blind, I'm getting ready to be defined
No loose connections 'cause it feels right
I'm getting ready to hit the line

When a day breaks, turns you around
And your world upside down
And the visions fade
Rights and wrongs and just where you've gone

I must be blind, I'm getting ready to be defined
No loose connections 'cause it feels right
I'm getting ready to hit the line

Making out is such an awful drag
And I could, I could lose my mind
But every time that I turned around
I never knew if I could really find you

You said that was that but this is it
How were you to make the pieces fit
Into a plan to start a new life?
Friends pat your back, then stab you with a knife

I must be blind, I'm getting ready to be defined
No loose connections 'cause it feels right
I'm getting ready to hit the line
