En esta canción se usa GOT con el significado de "tener".

- Got a picture of you beside me = tengo una foto de ti a mi lado.
- Got your lipstick mark still on your coffee cup = Tengo la marca de tu pintalabios todavía en tu taza de café.
- Got a fist of pure emotion = Tengo un arrebato de melancolía.
- Got a head of shattered dreams = Tengo una cabeza llena de sueños rotos.
- Gotta leave it all behind now = Tengo que dejarlo todo atrás ahora

Fíjate que se comen el sujeto, que debería ser "yo" (I). Esto no se considera correcto, pero en algunos contextos se puede hacer a nivel coloquial.

Fíjate también en estas dos formas frecuentes de pronunciar la T:

T + Y = /ch/ --> Got your ( "gocho")
vocal + T + vocal = R española de "cara" --> Got a ("gora")
