lyrics

I’m For Gettin’

Got my wish but not what I wanted
Got myself but no one to blame
Can’t hold out for things to get better
Or even hope things stay the same

I made the worst of all the bad choices
Same old thing, tested and true
It never works, but seems like the right thing to do

Heart made of glass, rising sun setting
I’m all for gettin’
While the forgettin’s good

Green light Go; foot to the metal
All I had was all it would take
I only wish my heart wasn’t in it
I had no idea it could break

I’ve never been the best or the brightest
I always think there’s plenty of time
But last I heard, they haven’t made stupid a crime

Heart made of glass, rising sun settin’
I did the best that I could
Safe in the past; that’s what I’m bettin’
I’m all for gettin’
While the forgettin’s good

Can’t expect to pick ‘em every single time you choose
Lucky just to hit the sweet spot of the blues

Saved the day whenever a crisis
Each one met and put in its place
But one big thing I never took care of
It wasn’t in front of my face

So, this could be a valuable lesson
Lost on me, ‘til I see the light
I can’t do one, not one thing about it tonight

Heart made of glass, rising sun settin’
I did the best that I could
Safe in the past; that’s where I headin’
I’m all for gettin’
While the forgettin’s good
