Song information On this page you can read the lyrics of the song If I Could Just Get It On Paper , by - Jimmy Buffett. Song from the album Somewhere Over China, in the genre ПопIf I Could Just Get It On Paper |
| If I could just get it on paper |
| The things that have happened tonight |
| That seems to me to be the big key |
| I’m havin' too good a time to ever turn |
| Out the lights |
| Go to bed wake up with a clear head |
| Recallin' what made it a ball |
| Yes if I could just get it on paper |
| I might make some sense of it all |
| If I could tell half of the stories |
| The funny way most things begin |
| Figure ways to disguise all the half-truths and lies |
| Find the heart of my song with the point of a pen |
| Simple words can become clever phrases |
| And chapters could turn into books |
| Yes if I could just get it on paper |
| But it’s harder than it ever looks |
| (instrumental) |
| All alone on the edge of the water |
| Hidin' out by the sea of cortez |
| With my sketch pads and flairs |
| Tapes and battery spares |
| It’s just no comprehendo to what everyone says |
| Time alone seemed to work well for faulkner |
| Time away seems to work for the kid |
| Life and ink they run out at the same time |
| Or so said my old friend the squid |
| Yes if I could just get it on paper tonight |
| I could tell you what I think I did |
