Catie Curtis Just Getting By
I woke up this morning, blankets thick like my tongue My thinking still tangled, couldn't get the words to come Yesterday I could fly, forgot to come back to the ground You watched me in the sky, knowing how I always circle down And when I'm just getting by, that's when I see myself a fool When I'm just getting by, that's when I thank god for you There's snow on my windshield and I'm hours from home I crack my window open and think of you asleep and warm I was just singing, forgot to come back to the ground And with my ears ringing, I'll try not to make a sound And when I'm just getting by, that's when I see myself a fool When I'm just getting by, that's when I thank god for you I felt like crying to your half-asleep heart No reason, really, sometimes I just fall apart It used to scare you when I'd come back to the ground Now you just hold me, knowing how I always circle around And when I'm just getting by, that's when I see myself a fool When I'm just getting by, that's when I thank god for you
