I've really got to use my imagination
To think of good reasons
To keep on keepin' on

Got to make the best of a bad situation
Ever since that day
I woke up and found
That you had gone

Darkness all around me
Blockin' out the sun
Old friends call me
But I don't talk to no one

Emptiness has found me
And it just won't let me go
I go right on livin'
But why I just don't know

I've really got to use my imagination
To think of a real good reason
To keep on keepin' on

Got to make the best of a bad situation
Ever since that day
I woke up and found
That you had gone
Staring down reality
It just don't do me no good
'Cause our misunderstanding
Is too well understood

Such a sad, sad season
When a good love dies
Not a day goes by
When I don't realize

That I've got to use my imagination
To think of a real good reason
To keep on keepin' on

I got to make the best of a bad situation
Ever since that day
I woke up and found
That you were gone
