[Intro]
Sorry, but ya know…
I gotta go
(Catch you next time?
Don’t want to miss our prime)
[Verse 1]
Still staring out the window
Wonder, ‘Where did the time go?’
[Bridge]
Half-way to win
Know where to begin
[Chorus]
If you don’t win
(Try it again)
Learn how to ride (the tide)
Feel the thrill (of the high)
[Bridge]
Sorry, but ya know…
I gotta go
(Catch you next time?
Don’t want to miss our prime)
[Verse 2]
Still staring toward the floor
Wonder, ‘is this all I do anymore?’
Perhaps leave the phone alone
And, you’re more prone
[Bridge]
Half-way to win
Know when to begin
[Chorus]
If you don’t win
(Try it again)
Learn how to ride (the tide)
Feel the thrill (of the high)
[Bridge]
Sorry, but ya know…
I gotta go
(Catch you next time?
Don’t want to miss our prime)
[Chorus]
If you don’t win
(Try it again)
Learn how to ride (the tide)
Feel the thrill (of the high)
[Outro]
Sorry, but ya know…
I gotta go
(Catch you next time?
Don’t want to miss our prime)
[Intro]
Why don’t you back on up
And, sit right down
(We’ll take a look around)
[Verse 1]
Hey, how are you doing?
(O.K. What do you say?)
I’m doing fine, but about our time…
[Bridge]
Why don’t you back on up
And, sit right down
(We’ll take a look around)
[Chorus]
Take a look around
See what’s found
While we transgress
This mess
[Verse 2]
By the way, where ya going
(Me? I’m on my way to knowing. You?)
I’m doing fine, but about our time…
[Bridge]
Why don’t you back on up
And, sit right down
(We’ll take a look around)
[Chorus]
Take a look around
See what’s found
While we transgress
This mess
[Bridge]
Why don’t you back on up
And, sit right down
(We’ll take a look around)
[Outro]
Take a look around
See what’s found
While we transgress
This mess
[Verse 1]
You know She’s gonna give
And, I don’t mean in
She’ll give you the will to live
Earth is heaven
[Chorus]
You know She’s gonna blow (let’s go)
Blow up the love (love love)
Bring it in from above (love love)
She’ll give the love to live
[Break]
Let’s go

Love’s a two-way street
Where give and take meet
Determinative
She’s gonna give!
[Verse 2]
You wanna know how to live (give)
Give giving a try (before you die)
Be like Her and give (live)
And, feel the high (kiss the sky)
[Chorus]
You know She’s gonna blow (let’s go)
Blow up the love (love love)
Bring it in from above (love love)
She’ll give the love to live
[Break]
Let’s go
[Bridge]
Love’s a two-way street
Where give and take meet
Determinative
She’s gonna give!
[Chorus]
You know She’s gonna blow (let’s go)
Blow up the love (love love)
Bring it in from above (love love)
She’ll give the love to live
[Outro]
Let’s go
Where give and take meet
Become complete

A SCIENCE NOTE
Athletes often use a meditation technique known as visualization or mental imagery to envision a race or performance in advance. This technique involves mentally rehearsing the race, competition, or performance in great detail. Here’s how it works and its benefits:
How Visualization Works
Relaxation:
Athletes start by finding a quiet place and assuming a comfortable position. They might use deep breathing exercises to enter a relaxed state.
Detailed Imagery:
They then begin to mentally recreate the race or event in vivid detail. This includes visualizing the start, the course, competitors, and the finish line.
They incorporate all senses into the visualization – seeing the track, hearing the crowd, feeling the ground underfoot, smelling the environment, and even tasting sweat.
Positive Outcomes:
Athletes focus on performing well, imagining themselves executing each movement perfectly, overcoming challenges, and achieving their goals.
They visualize both the physical and emotional aspects of the race, including staying calm under pressure and maintaining focus.
Consistency:
This practice is often repeated regularly, helping to reinforce the mental rehearsal and making the visualization more vivid and automatic.
Benefits of Visualization
Improved Performance:
Visualization helps athletes prepare mentally for the race, which can enhance physical performance. By mentally rehearsing the race, they are better prepared for the actual event.
Enhanced Confidence:
Seeing themselves succeed in their mind’s eye can boost athletes’ confidence, reducing anxiety and self-doubt.
Better Focus:
Visualization helps athletes concentrate on the task at hand, blocking out distractions and staying focused on their goals.
Preparation for Various Scenarios:
By imagining different scenarios, such as adverse weather or strong competitors, athletes can prepare mentally for unexpected challenges.
Muscle Memory:
Repeated mental practice can help in building muscle memory, making physical movements more natural and automatic during the actual performance.
Practical Example
A sprinter might use visualization to mentally run through their race multiple times before the actual event:
Start: Imagining the feel of the starting blocks, the sound of the starter gun, and the initial burst of speed.
Middle of the Race: Visualizing maintaining form, pacing, and strategic movements.
Finish: Seeing themselves crossing the finish line, feeling the satisfaction of completing the race, and experiencing the emotions of victory.
In conclusion, visualization is a powerful meditation technique that helps athletes prepare for their races or performances by mentally rehearsing and envisioning every aspect of the event. This practice can lead to improved performance, increased confidence, better focus, and effective handling of various scenarios.
