Album: Caught In The Act

Something's Gotta Give


(J. Mercer)

When an irresistible force such as you
Meets an old immovable object like me
You can bet as sure as you live
Somewhere, sometime, somehow
Something's gotta give


When an irrepressible smile such as yours
Warms an old implacable heart such as mine
Don't say no because I insist
Somewhere, sometime
Something's gotta give


So, look out cause who knows what the fates have in store
From their vast mysterious sky
But I'll try hard ignoring your lips I adore
But how long can anyone try?


So Fight, fight, fight, fight, fight with all of our mights
Chances are some heavenly star spangled night
You'll find out as sure as we live
That sometime, someway, somehow
Something's gotta give
