Got To Get You Into My Life Lyrics

Got to get you into my life, into my life
Got to get you into my life, into my life
Got to get you into my life, into my life
Got to get you into my life, into my life
Got to get you into my life, into my life

I was alone, I took a ride, I didn't know what I would find there.
Another road, where maybe I could see another sign there.
Ooh, and then I suddenly see you.
Oooh, and did I tell you that I need you ev'ry single day of my life?

You didn't run, you didn't lie, you knew I want to hold you.
And had you gone you knew in time we'd meet again for I had told you.
Ooh, you were meant to be near me.
Ooh, I really want for you to hear me say we'll be together ev'ry day, yeah.

Got to get you into my life (Got to get you into my life)
Got to get you in, got to, got you into my life (Got to, got you get you into my life, yeah)
Got to get you into my life (Uhh, I Got to get you into my, got to get you into my life)
Got to get you into my life (oh yeah)

[Guitar solo]

Ooh, and then I suddenly see you.
Oooh, did I tell you that I need you ev'ry single day of my life?

Got to get you into my life (Got to get you into my life)
Got to get you in, got to get you into my life (My life)
Got to get you into my life (Got to get you into my life, yeah)
Got to get you into my life
Got to get you in, got to get you in, got to get you in, got to get you in, into my life
Got to get you into my life
Got to get you in, got to get you in, got to get you in, got to get you in, into my life
Got to get you into my life

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

I think this song is just an expression of youthful infatuation and the general funness of being young with no strings attatched. Well, that is unless you happened to be unfortunate enough to sing it in show choir, in which case you just end up thinking of sparkly dresses and big hair.

I agree, I think it's just about being young, happy, and in love. We just got it in one of the jazz bands I'm in at school, and the bass part is a killer for me to play...my director was telling me to watch this video of Earth, Wind, and Fire's bassist and how animated he is and that I should play it like it's a solo, and I just sat there and laughed because I'm more or less the shyest kid in the ensemble, and I'm definately not a showboat kind of bassist. But now I really want to see film of this band performing live!

This is a great cover of the Beatles tune. I read a Paul McCartney biography and he said he wrote the song after smoking weed for the first time and how he wanted to smoke it all the time.
