When You Get Right Down to It Songtext
von Phyllis Hyman

When you′re in love with love
Your vision's cloudy
You can′t see two feet in front of you without a lens
When you're in love with pain
The feeling's over
You must find a way for you to start all over again

(Don′t waste time) there′s someone else for you to find
(Don't live a lie) there′s always better roads in life
(Don't be shy) and know that you can find much better
Don′t you be confused about what life is offering you

When you get right down to it
I'm not in love with him anymore
(No more, no more)
When you get right down to it
It could never be the same
Not like it was before


I woke up to a mess
Love feeling shaky
You can′t seem to get grip on what is right or wrong
I know you're not to blame
He drove you crazy
You kept coming back for more but now you know the score

(Feel the way) a new direction's calling you
(Feel free to find) a life you want, some find the way
(Feel the vibe) it′s circulating inside like fire
All those things he did to you you′re leaving in the past

When you get right down to it
You're not in love with him anymore
(No more, no more, ooh) yeah, yeah
When you get right down to it
It could never be the same
Not like it was before

Fortune smiled on you today (just today)
Someone put that smile on your face (smile)
Leaving you with a good, good feeling
One you can′t erase (erase)
Someone finally took your place


When you get right down to it
You're not in love with him anymore
(No more, no more, ooh) you′re not in love with him
When you get right down to it
It could never be the same
Not like it was before

When you get right down to it (when you get right down)
You're not in love with him anymore
(No more, no more, ooh) you′re not in love
When you get right down to it (get right down)
It could never be the same (never be the same)
Not like it was before

When you get right down to it
You're not in love with him anymore
(No more, no more, ooh)
When you get right down to it
It could never be the same (it won't be the same)
Not like it was before (na-na-na-na-na)
