"Gettin' Through" lyrics - RICHIE FURAY

RICHIE FURAY
"Gettin' Through"
(Furay-Stipe)

If it's comin' through quite clearly
Like the sun in a clouded sky
If it's comin' through to you, don't let it ride.

Many times I've seen it happen
Many times then slip away
Someone's looking for tomorrow
And forgets about today.

There's a story in this song
You can get a feeling to belong
Let's get it on.

All the times you've heard the music
And all the times it moved your soul
And you found yourself believing in rock and roll.

There is music here for certain
There's enough and maybe more
And I'll let you know a secret
You're the one and that is...

Like an arrow straight and true
There ain't nothin' you can do
When the sight's on you.

Hey, am I gettin' through?
Is it enough that you just make do?
Are you satisfied to drift with the tide?
Is it taking hold?

Well, whatever else you've been told
And you're long overdue
Am I gettin' through?

Like the dawn out in the desert
You can't make the darkness stay
Or live within a shadow
Tryin' to keep the light away.

Like an arrow straight and true
There ain't nothin' you can do
When the sight's on you.

Hey, am I gettin' through?
Is it enough that you just make do?
Are you satisfied to drift with the tide?
Is it taking hold?

Well, whatever else you've been told
And you're long overdue
Am I gettin' through?
