"Getting To The Point" lyrics

"Getting To The Point"

It's out of control (Out of control)
And there's nothing I can do now
Out of control (Out of control)
Spinning softly through the blue now
And look beyond these walls
As the meaning starts to dawn
It's getting to the point
Getting to the point

It's out of control (Nothing I can do)
Like a fire that keeps on burning
And nobody knows (What I'm going through)
And the thoughts just keep returning
And all you had to say
Was that you were gonna stay
It's getting to the point
(Getting to the point)
It's getting to the point

(It's getting to the point) Where nobody can stop it now
(It's getting to the point) Of no return
(And all that I can do) Is stand and watch it now
Watch it burn, burn, burn
(It's getting to the point) Where reasons are forgotten
(It's getting to the point) Where no one knows
(And all that I can do) Is say I'm sorry
But that's the way it goes
It's getting to the point

Forever is a long way
Forever takes your breath away
I'd like to talk about it
Try to understand
It's getting to the point
(Getting to the point)
It's getting to the point

(It's getting to the point) Where nobody can stop it now
(It's getting to the point) Of no return
(And all that I can do) Is stand and watch it, now
Watch it burn, burn, burn
(It's getting to the point) Where reasons are forgotten
(It's getting to the point) Where no one knows
(And all that I can do) Is say I'm sorry
That's the way it goes, yeah, yeah, yeah

It's getting to the point (Getting to the point)
Getting to the point (Getting to the point)
It's getting to the point (Getting to the point)
Getting to the point
