Not Like This
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Not like this without a single tear
We can't just walk away as
if it never happened
Our kind of love has never talked
in whispers
So if it's time to go, lets do it right
and go out loud
But not like this without a backward
glance
Did all our feeling die the moment
love was over
Well, not in me 'cause i still feel
you in my soul
So I will leave you tenderly
or bitterly
But not like this
