Get What You Deserve

by Joe Davis and Jocelyn Scott

Is the world in balance tonight
Has it ever been
Trying to inhabit space and time
Looking for the battles you can win
Is the world impatient tonight
Can it wait a while
Let go of what you can’t control
As you wait for life and love to reconcile
‘Til the stars align and the moon is right
And you close your eyes and it happens one night
And maybe
Maybe you get what you deserve

Is the world a challenge tonight
Does it have to be
When do you give up and settle in
Maybe it’s a matter of degree
But you know you’re right, and you’re sure there’s more
So you keep the faith and keep opening doors
And maybe
Maybe you get what you deserve

Is the world in balance tonight
Will it ever be
Nothing else a wanderer can know
Watching as the bending road recedes
But your mind’s made up, and your heart is set
Toward the things you want but don’t know about yet
And maybe
Maybe

Oh, you share your heart
And your golden soul
And I watch you give
And it never gets old
And maybe
Maybe
Oh, maybe you get what you deserve
