The Zombies - Gotta Get a Hold of Myself lyrics

Girl, I know you're not coming back anymore, So why oh why do I keep on watching the door? I talk to you as though you can hear what I say, But I'll lose my mind if I keep on acting this way. Got to get a hold of myself; Got to make believe I don't care; Got to go someplace, find a brand new face; Got to get out and get somewhere. Got to get a hold of myself; Got to take what life has to give; Got to give it a try, can't lay down and die; Got to get a hold of myself. Late at night I hear footsteps sound down the hall, And I kid myself that you're coming back after all. Telephone rings but there's no one on the line, No, no, no. When I stop and think, I know it's all in my mind. Got to get a hold of myself; Got to make believe I don't care; Got to go someplace, find a brand new face; Got to get out and get somewhere. Got to get a hold of myself; Got to take what life has to give; Got to give it a try, can't lay down and die; Got to get a hold of myself.
