I’ll Get By

A car broke down in an empty lane

I called your number but you never came

Just a man in a broken van today and every day

My mother went out and cut her hair

Shed some skin on the cross she bears

Was a change of scenery, change she needed

A simple haircut to symbolise her love for him as it hits the floor

It's a new day to wake up and know that he's not suffering anymore

The pain grows bigger when I need you most

The feeling deep within that I'm still holding close

I feel ya, I feel ya

Twelve months are gone but she cries the same

Oh everything is open but we're closed today

She needs ya, we still need ya

A simple haircut to symbolise her love for him as it hits the floor

It's a new day to wake up and know that he's not suffering anymore

I won't stop believing there's a place that I've been dreaming of

Where we can find each other in due time

I won't stop my lovin', my heart's torn but not forgotten and

I will find you there and we'll combine

But while you're waiting I'll get by

But while you're waiting I'll get by

But while you're waiting I'll get by, oh no

But while you're waiting I'll get by

But while you're waiting I'll get by

But while you're waiting I'll get by

But while you're waiting well I'll get by
