Fitting Finales: Get It Over With

Get It Over With
(Smith)


No arms to hold you with
No marriage in your sights
Is there any last words you wanna say
Well they never said it would be easy
I can see the train a comin'
Taking you off to who knows where
And I guess you can't win them all they say
But it'd be nice to win just once

Your love is gone, I know it has
Time to put you back into the past
Close the book and put it back
Say goodbye and get it over with

So are you having second thoughts
You look as if you don't wanna go
Well if I could I'd beg you to stay
But it would play havoc with my soul

Your love is gone, I know it has
Time to put you back into the past
Close the book and put it back
Say goodbye and get it over with

No arms to hold you with
No marriage in your sights
Is there any last words you wanna say
They never said it would end this way

But your love is gone, I know it has
Time to put you back into the past
Close the book and put it back
Say goodbye and get it over with
Say goodbye and get it over with
Say goodbye and get it over with
Say goodbye and get it over with

Drive In Blues was an album that was a concept album about me trying to woo some woman who was not as she appeared to be. Infatuation that wore off in a hurry.  23 years down the road, I revisit this failed liaison with a different music arrangement and use of a capo around the fifth fret. A blessing that me and her never took it further, I wouldn't be playing music now if I was with her.
