Get To You

The Byrds Get To You written by Roger McGuinn

Standing in the airport I am waiting for a plane

Going east to London want to be back there again

It's the right time of year all the leaves are on the ground

But I really only want to get to you

Sitting by the window watching ocean going by

Soon I should be with you but how fast can this thing fly

Day hours seem like an eternity

All the time it took me trying to get to you

That's a little better that's a little better

That's a little better

Standing in the airport I am getting off a plane

Glad to be in London even though it's pouring rain

It's a bright sunny day when I see you run my way

But it took me twenty years to get to you

It's a bright sunny day when I see you run my way

But it took me twenty years to get to you

That's a little better that's a little better

That's a little better

From the "Notorious Byrd Brothers" LP Columbia Records 1968

The Byrds Wait And See written by David Crosby

Watch put what you say don't get in my way

I'm gonna get that girl wait and see

I saw her today she came by my way

I'm gonna win her love wait and see

And together we'll go walking in the evening there'll be talking

She's the kind of girl you never hardly see

Have you seen her eyes do you realize

How much love like that can mean to me

I know she knows me today I could see

The way she held her head when she walked by

And before the night is over I think I'm gonna love her

And if it lasts forever I don't care

Now that she is mine I told you all the time

How could I let a girl like that go by

And before the night is over I think I'm gonna love her

And if it lasts forever I don't care

The Byrds I Knew I'd Want You written by Gene Clark

I'd like to love you with all of my heart

You've had me on your trip right from the start

And when you looked at me with love in your eyes

I knew I'd want you oh yeah

I'd like to hold you if you want me to

I've found something new girl just by looking at you

And it's in your smile and it's in the way

I knew I'd want you oh yeah

I meet so many people I feel I don't know

But I felt so close to you when you said hello

I'd like to love you with all of my heart

You've had me on your trip right from the start

And when you looked at me with love in your eyes

I knew I'd want you oh yeah
