Intro DAG DAG D
Verse 1
I Gcannot sAtop this child from Dtouching me
G I see no Afault in watching her Dbloom
G She knows where fAire begins and where sDparks might fly
Em Yet I fAeel she may be consDumed.
G She done tAurns on the DB stage
GShe shook hAands when the sDhoe fit
GI wanna knAow how the lanDd lies
C D DAG
I'll let you in on a secret.
Verse 2
I did not steal away when love rode by
I did not let myself be unkind
It's so hard to say where love meets lust
I often think I'm losing my mind.
I trade notes with the press league
They send back their suggestions
I wanna know where I come from
But all I get are directions.
Chorus
I can't get sBmtarted, can't get goEming What's wrDong?
Big iBmdeas, the fine inteEmntions They're all goDne
DIt takes two flagons of coCurage Pounds, shillings and pDence
D C D DAG
You wind up going nowhere It doesn't make sense.
Verse 3
I see my brother's face grow dark with care
I spend my time avoiding his gaze
I pray that God might make his dreams come true
I'd give so much to feel he's been saved.
A bright spark in the playground
Dead loss as an anchor
You don't call him a misfit
He's just stuck for an answer.
Chorus
Can't get started, can't get going What's wrong?
Big ideas, the fine intentions They're all gone
It takes two flagons of courage Pounds, shillings and pence
You wind up going nowhere It doesn't make any sense.
Chorus
I can't get started, I can't get going What's wrong?
Big ideas, the fine intentions They're all gone
I can't get started, can't get going What's wrong?
Can't get started, can't get going What's wrong?
