Get Myself Together Songtext
von Luther Vandross & Louie Vega

Oh, oh, please

I done drove you away
Now, I know just how bad it is
To be without your love

What I wanna say is baby
I know I′ve got to get myself together
I've been a bad boy, yeah
I know I′ve got to do something about it, ooh-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, baby
If you could see inside my mind
All you'd see is you and I can′t change feeling the way I do

No, don't leave me this way
I′m down on my knees
Begging you to stay
Don't leave me, honey, please


What I wanna say is, baby (baby)
I know I′ve got to get myself together
I've been a bad boy, yeah (then maybe)
I've really got to do something about it, ooh-ooh
(Oh yeah, ooh, ooh, ooh)

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 begging)
Begging 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
It′ll make me say


Baby (baby)
I know I've got to get myself together (together)
I′ve been a bad boy, yeah (then maybe)
I've really got to do something about it
Ooh, yeah, yeah (what you gon′ do? What you gonna do?)

Baby (baby)
I know I've got to get myself together (together)
I've been a bad boy, yeah (then maybe)
I really got to do something about it (something about it)
Something about it (what you gon′ do? What you gonna do?)

Bad boy, bad boy, bad boy, bad boy
Baby, baby, baby, baby
Ooh, what a bad boy
I′ve been a bad boy, a bad boy, oh-oh
