Michael McDonald - Get The Word Started lyrics

(David Pack And Michael McDonald)

When the morning breaks with the rising sun

Our past mistakes are gonna be undone

'cause no other love could have opened my eyes

To the simple joy of just being alive

'cause in this world it still takes love to get the word started

Talkin' 'bout change just ain't enough to get the word started

We gotta show the world what we're made of, get the word started

These times are gonna get rough, so get the word started

Right now

When shadows fall, our love will shine

On all the good things baby that are left to find

If we don't believe that have half a chance

Then all hopes and dreams are gonna slip through our hands
