Getting It Right Lyrics - Dusty Springfield

(S. Tyrell / S. Tyrell / C. Townes) 

Hey boy, don't be shy 

Waiting all alone 

Think about what you can give 

Some boys never learn 

That's the way to live 

And it's the secret 

To getting it right 

Living carefully, always filled with doubt 

Scared to make a move too soon 

Just once, take a chance 

She will take one, too 

'Cause that's the secret 

To getting it right

It's not who loves you as how much do you love 

And what's in your heart that shows what you're made of 

You're made of love, hey, boy 

It's all right 

Someone understands 

You don't have so far to go 

Reach out for her hand 

Then you'll really know 

The secret to getting it right 

You're made of love, hey, boy 

It's all right 

Someone understands 

You don't have so far to go 

Reach out for her hand 

Then you'll really know 

The secret to getting it right 

Reach out, take her hand 

Then you'll really know 

You'll know that you're getting it right 

Yes, you'll know that you're getting it right
