Billie Holiday
I Can’t Get Started (Live)
[Verse 1]
I've been around the world in a plane
Settled revolutions in Spain
The North Pole I have charted
But can't get started with you
And at the golf course I'm under par
Metro-Goldwyn wants me to star
I've got a house and a show place
But can't get no place with you
[Bridge]
You're so supreme
The lyrics I write of you, dream
Dream day and night of you, scheme
Just for the sight of you
But what good will it do?
[Verse 2]
I've been consulted by Franklin D
Even Gabriel had me to tea
But now I'm broken hearted
Can't get startеd with you
[Instrumental Break]
[Bridge]
You're so supreme
Thе lyrics I write of you, dream
Dream day and night of you, scheme
Just for the sight of you
But what good does it do?
[Verse 2]
I've been consulted by Franklin D
Even Basie had me to tea
But now I'm broken hearted
Can't get started with you
