Howe Gelb Terribly So
[Verse 1]
Back in Arizona
Knee deep in the sand
A heart still contentious
But the clouds back at my command
Love's pretentious
And we pretend to understand
And goes where it sends us
Over and just above the promise land
Now that the loving heart
Has become terrible so
Now that the loving heart
Has learned to let it go
Maybe the lonely
Or maybe them only
Are ever gonna get to know
[Verse 2]
Maybe you're in Australia
Maybe even on the coast
Disguised in regalia
And making the most of the most
Of a bad situation
Made bitter by the grace
Discovering new love in an unanticipated place
When will the loving heart
Become terribly so
When will the loving heart
Learn to let it go
Maybe the lonely
Or maybe them only
Are ever gonna get to know
[Verse 3]
Now I'm in Constantinople
With a toe in the tide
Oh, you can't stand to be so hopeful
Until you learn to let it ride
Now that the loving heart has become terribly so
Now that the loving heart has learned to let it go
Maybe the lonely
Or maybe them only
Are ever gonna get to know
