The End of the Beginning (from ”Wheelhouse”) Lyrics by Valerie Vigoda

Just Getting Good

2016

[Verse 1]
So I call God up
And I'm kinda nervous
But I call God up
I get his answering service
So I take a breath
Make my voice all steady
Take another breath
And I think I'm ready
[Pre-Chorus]
And I say on the line
"Could you tell the Divine
That I'm here down below
And I really wanna know:
[Chorus]
Have we turned the corner?
Have we gone right 'round the bend?
Is it the end of the beginning?
Or the beginning of the end?
Have we crossed the border?
Can we get back home again?
Is it the end of the beginning
Or the beginning of the end?"
[Verse 2]
And I don't hear back
But I'm in no hurry
Still, I don't hear back
And I start to worry
'Cause the days fly by
With no confirmation
And then years fly by
And a desperation
[Pre-Chorus]
Settles into my soul
I feel out of control
So I hit redial
And I wait and wait a while
And I wait and wait a while
And I wait and wait a while
And I wait and wait a while
[Bridge]
Just when I'm thinking that I oughta let it go, now
Somebody picks up on the line and says, "Yeah, what?"
I say, "Hello, sir, there's some things I'd like to know, now
I open these doors, I walk on through, and then they shut
I wonder if I shoulda tried another door, now
Did I choose right? And what's the future gonna bring?"
And he says, "You little people always wanna know the score, now
You want a hint? Well, I will tell you just one thing:"
He said, "You don't get to know"
He said, "You don't get to know
You don't get to know
You don't get to know"
[Verse 3]
Then he drops the phone
And he's disconnected
And I'm all alone
And I'm all dejected
But it gives me hope
Not the way he said it
But it gives me hope
Yeah, I think I get it
[Pre-Chorus]
Choose a door
And you're done
If your door
Was the right one
You won't know
And that's wise
It would ruin the surprise
[Chorus]
Have we turned the corner?
Have we gone right 'round the bend?
Is it the end of the beginning?
Or the beginning of the end?
Have we crossed the border?
Can we get back home again?
Is it the end of the beginning
Or the beginning of the end?
Have we turned the corner?
Have we gone right 'round the bend?
Is it the end of the beginning?
Or the beginning of the end?
Have we crossed the border?
Can we get back home again?
Is it the end of the beginning
Or the beginning of the end?
[Outro]
You don't get to know (Have we turned the corner? Have we gone right 'round the bend?)
You don't get to know (Is it the end of the beginning? Or the beginning of the end?)
You don't get to know (Have we crossed the border? Can we get back home again?)
You don't get to know (Is it the end of the beginning or the beginning?)
