Get It Right
Edgewater Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

God, what I would give just to take the light away of that one day
Reel it back again and just give me one more chance at that one day
How many times does it take to get it right?
How many times does it take to get it right?

Always thinking of yesterdays
Always making the same mistakes
And say what I want to say
I can never get it right

Just to let it slip away I feel the pain again of this one thing
It's taking over sleep and it's all I have in me is this one thing
How many times does it take to get it right?
How many times does it take to get it right?

Always thinking of yesterdays
Always making the same mistakes
And say what I want to say
Maybe I can get it right
RIGHT NOW
Maybe I can get it right
RIGHT NOW
Maybe I can get it right this time and release me

How many times does it take to get it right?
How many times does it take to get it right?

Always thinking of yesterdays
Always making the same mistakes
And someday maybe I'll make the change
And say what I want to say
Now it's time to get it right




Now it's time to get it right
NOW IT'S TIME TO GET IT RIGHT
