Lyrics Get A Grip (On It) - Irene Cara

Get a grip --- get a grip on it
Try to stay on it, baby
Get a grip --- don't let up on it
Gotta get on it, baby
(Repeat)
Floating --- so high above the ground
Playing between the sound of perilous boundaries
Seek out confusing surroundings all around
Working --- to gain some higher ground
Then there's a stranger
Keeps a-calling inside of my head
Wonderin' when there will come a time
The power of your love is all i want to find
Bridge 1:
A hit today is tomorrow's debt
And yesterday's a cancelled check
You do your best, careful not to fall
Gotta stay one step ahead of them all
Get a grip --- get a grip on it
Try to stay on it, baby
Get a grip --- don't let up on it
Gotta get on it, baby
(Repeat)
Laying --- the tracks of endless sound
The cost is high but i got to do it anyhow
Total --- control is on my mind
It feels so right, i know it must be a sign
Working --- to gain some higher ground
Then there's a stranger
Keeps a-calling inside of my head
Wonderin' when there will come a time
The power of your love is all i want to find
Bridge 2:
Ooh wanna find, wanna find love
I wanna find love
Wanna know. wanna know
Where there's love to find
A hit today is tomorrow's debt
And yesterday's a cancelled check
You do your best, careful not to fall
Gotta stay one step ahead of them all
(Repeat bridge 1)
Get a grip ---g-g-get a grip on it
Try to stay on it, baby (try it for me)
Get a grip --- don't let up on it
Gotta get on it, baby
G-g-get a grip (to fade)
