Get Myself Together Songtext
von Luther Vandross

Yeah, help me
I′d not drove you away
Now, I know, just how bad it is to be without your love
What I wanna say is babe

I know, I've got to keep myself together
I′ve been a bad boy, yeah
I know, I've got to do something about it
Uh yeah, yeah, yeah babe
I know, I've got to keep myself together
I′ve been a bad boy, yeah
I know, I′ve got to do something about it
Uh, oh


Without you, inside my heart, it's a lonely place
That′s why to think you're leaving me, it′s hard to face
Babe, if you could see inside my mind
All you'd see is you and I can′t change feelin' the way I do
No, don't leave me this way
I′m down on my knees, beggin′ you to stay
Don't leave me, honey, please
What I wanna say is, babe (babe)

I know, I′ve got to keep myself together
I've been a bad boy, yeah (babe)
I know, I′ve got to do something about it
Uh yeah, yeah, yeah
Babe (babe)

I know, I've got to keep myself together
I′ve been a bad boy, yeah (and maybe)
I really got to do something about it
Uh (oh yeah)

Getting back into your heart, won't be an easy thing
But, I can really promise you, I've changed
I′ve got to know that you′ll be there
Not only 'cause I care, but because
I′m really scared of the world without you

Don't leave me this way (don′t leave me this way)
I'm down on my knees (I′m beggin')
Beggin' you to stay
Don′t leave me, honey, please
Don′t leave me this way (don't leave me this way)


I′m down on my knees (I'm beggin′)
Beggin' you to stay
Don′t leave me, honey, please
What I wanna say is

Honey, please (honey, please)
Don't leave me all alone
This big, old, heavy world, I can't carry it alone
Honey, please (honey, please)
If we get back together
We can take this love we have and make it last forever

Honey, please (honey, please)
Don′t leave me all alone
This big, old, crazy world, I can′t take it on my own
Honey, please (honey, please)
If we get back together
We can take this love we have
It'll make me say, babe (babe)

I know, I′ve got to keep myself together (together)
I've been a bad boy, yeah (and maybe)
I really got to do something about it
Uh yeah (what you gonna do?) yeah (what you gonna do?)
Babe (babe)

I know, I′ve got to keep myself together (together)
I've been a bad boy, yeah (and maybe)
I really got to do something about it (something about it)
Something about it
(What you gonna do? What you gonna do?)

Yeah, oh
Babe, babe, babe, babe, babe, babe, uh
Uh, what a bad boy
Uh, what a bad boy
I′ve been a—, I've been a bad boy
Bad boy, a bad boy, oh
