Do you get it, do you get it, do you

Pop-Rock

Full Lyric:

Verse 1

The other day I caught you,

with a faraway look in your eye.

And you best believe, honey

I’m gonna stop and wonder why.

Sure all of our eyes have strayed.

We’ve wondered how we might have played it.

But this is the choice we made.

That freed us from the searching.


Verse 2

Could you really be happier, looking for what you’ve already found?

Don’t worry ‘bout me, darlin’

It’s just you, you’d be letting down.

All the fights that we engaged.

All the lovin’ that we made.

You gonna throw it all away, on some pretty barmaid?


Chorus

We’ve only got this time around.

Do you get it, do you get it?

Hedging your bets won’t buy another round.

Do you get it, my love?

Do you get it, do you get it, do you

Bridge

Think, long and hard.

I’ve got my own dance card.


Verse 3

Now it’s a few months later,

and that young girl, she left town.

And it felt for a few days like, I could feel you feelin’ let down


Well if I’m your consolation prize.

Take a look at me through another guy’s eyes

You’ve only got this last moment

To get wise


Chorus

We’ve only got this time around.

Do you get it, do you get it?

Hedging your bets won’t buy another round.

Do you get it, my love?

Do you get it, do you get it, do you

Cause I’m givin it to you
