about

This is the first single from the upcoming White Blood Cells Album, "Get Going"

lyrics

Gone is the holding of hands,
Lips can’t kiss if they won’t meet again,
There’s an emptiness here in my bed,
It’s the same shape as you with your head on my chest.

Why did I have to go away?
And to think, God, but what if I’d stayed?
There’s a lesson to be learned in this:
You can love but you’d better not wish for the best.

Ai! Ai! Ai! Ai! Ai! Ai! Ai! // Ai! Ai! Ai! Ai! Ai! Ai! Ai! Ai! Ai!
Ai! Ai! Ai! Ai! Ai! Ai! Ai! Ai! Ai! // Ai! Ai! Ai! Ai! Ai! Ai! Ai! Ai! Ai! Ai! Ai! Ai!

You gotta know
When you got it, and when you don’t.
You gotta feel
And if you lose it, you just gotta be real.
You gotta love
If you give it all, then it just don’t stop.
Just let go
Come on, Mama, let me sooth your soul!

Ai! Ai! Ai! Ai! Ai! Ai! Ai! // Ai! Ai! Ai! Ai! Ai! Ai! Ai! Ai! Ai!
Ai! Ai! Ai! Ai! Ai! Ai! Ai! Ai! Ai! // Ai! Ai! Ai! Ai! Ai! Ai! Ai! Ai! Ai! Ai! Ai! Ai!

Yes, I know we’ll meet again,
And God-willing it won’t be as friends.
There’s no reason for us to pretend,
That this feeling is all in our heads, not our chests.

You gotta know
When you got it, and when you don’t.
You gotta feel
And if you lose it, you just gotta be real.
You gotta love
If you give it all, then it just don’t stop.
Just let go
Come on, Mama, let me sooth your soul!

Ai! Ai! Ai! Ai! Ai! Ai! Ai! // Ai! Ai! Ai! Ai! Ai! Ai! Ai! Ai! Ai!
Ai! Ai! Ai! Ai! Ai! Ai! Ai! Ai! Ai! // Ai! Ai! Ai! Ai! Ai! Ai! Ai! Ai! Ai! Ai! Ai! Ai!
