Get a Grip (On It) Songtext

von Irene Cara

Get a grip --- get a grip on it
Try to stay on it, baby
Get a grip --- don't let up on it
Gotta get on it, baby

(repeat )

Floating --- so high above the ground
Playing between the sound of perilous boundaries
Seek out confusing surroundings all around

Working --- to gain some higher ground
Then there's a stranger
Keeps a-calling inside of my head
Wonderin' when there will come a time
The power of your love is all i want to find

[Bridge: 1]
A hit today is tomorrow's debt
And yesterday's a cancelled check
You do your best, careful not to fall
Gotta stay one step ahead of them all

Get a grip --- get a grip on it
Try to stay on it, baby
Get a grip --- don't let up on it
Gotta get on it, baby

(repeat )

Laying --- the tracks of endless sound
The cost is high but i got to do it anyhow
Total --- control is on my mind
It feels so right, i know it must be a sign

Working --- to gain some higher ground
Then there's a stranger
Keeps a-calling inside of my head
Wonderin' when there will come a time
The power of your love is all i want to find

[Bridge: 2]
Ooh wanna find, wanna find love
I wanna find love
Wanna know. wanna know
Where there's love to find

A hit today is tomorrow's debt
And yesterday's a cancelled check
You do your best, careful not to fall
Gotta stay one step ahead of them all

(repeat bridge 1)

Get a grip ---g-g-get a grip on it
Try to stay on it, baby (try it for me)
Get a grip --- don't let up on it
Gotta get on it, baby

G-g-get a grip (to fade)
