Got to Use My Imagination Songtext
von Joe Cocker

I′ve really got to use my imagination
D'ya think I′ve got a reason to keep keeping up
I've got to make the best of a bad situation
Ever since that day (ever since that day)
I woke up and found you gone

It happens all around me
Like a night of sun
Old friends call out to me
But I don't talk to anyone
Emptiness has found me
And it just won′t let me go
I′ll arrive at home living
Why I just don't know


I′ve really got to use (got to use my imagination)
My imagination (got to use my imagination)
D'ya think I′ve got a reason (got to use my imagination)
To keep keeping up (got to use my imagination)
I've got to make the best of (best of, best of)
A bad situation (bad situation)
Ever since that day (ever since that day)
I woke up and found you gone (gone) oh, loving

Staring down the empty
Don′t do me no good
'Cause our misunderstanding is too well understood
Such a sad sad season (sad sad season)
When a good love dies (when a good love dies)
Not a day goes by
When I don't realise (realise)

That I′ve really got to use (got to use my imagination)
My imagination (got to use my imagination)
D′ya think I've got a reason (got to use my imagination)
Oh I should keep them on (got to use my imagination)
I′ve got to use the best of (best of, best of)
A bad situation (bad situation)
Ever since that day (ever since that day)
I woke up and found you gone (moving on, got to keep on)


I've got to use my mind in love
I′ve really got to use my mind
Oh I've got about drinking this time
To keep on moving on
Oh loving

Ever since that day (got to use my imagination)
Just need a little, a little bit of loving (got to use my imagination)
And it′s driving me crazy (got to use my imagination)
I'm about to lose my mind (got to use my imagination)
Yeah it's driving me wild, it′s driving me crazy (got to use my imagination)
Oh I′ve got no one to love right now (got to use my imagination)
I need your love, can't live without it (got to use my imagination)
′Cause (got to use my imagination)
It's driving me over the edge and turn (got to use my imagination)
Yeah, yeah
