lyrics

GETTING TO THE POINT - © Alexander Zarbo 1985

I'm trying to understand you when you say
You're happy kind of life depends on circumstance
I find you getting right to the point
You make the first move, there is no need for Romance

This status symbol you have tried to get
Demands more thought than you have in your own head
Without you making further delay
You take another chance at options in the bed

Getting to the point seems hard
Get on to the point

You stop and think of all the things you have
That makes you happy, but you never seem to want
It's not the things you own, that you enjoy
You find another means of being nonchalant

You talk about your goals in life
Important things that make you strive for lesser you might need
If ever you will hesitate...
I take it you are trying hard to have no greed

Deciding what you want is like knowing what is taught
Before you ever understood
Partially the right idea and partially the wrong idea
You sort out what is good

As many moments as this moment
Makes you feel you have the urge to say what's on your mind
You find you're getting right to the point
You say the first word and there is no need to unwind

Getting to the point seems hard
Get on to the point
