I gotta get while the gettin`s good baby get while the gettin`s good
Out of your life into a life where I`ll be understood
I need a lots of tender love and your heart`s made out of wood
If I`m never gonna find a peace of mind I gotta get while the gettin`s good
You told me that love is one big bubble we played the game by your rules and you won
And just today I figured out the trouble I learned to crawl before I learned to run
But I`m gonna get while...
[ steel ]
I noticed I`ve quit singing in the shower I rarely ever laugh and I can tell
I`m willting like the petals on the flowers
And there`s nothing left to say now but farewell
And I`m gonna get while...
