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.
You've been running around, this I know, yeah
I ought to pack my things and let you go, but, baby
I don't know what to do
I can't see myself going away to stay
Whoa, no, I can't see myself leaving you
You've been running around with every girl in town
Yes, you have
If I just had the power, I'd put you right down
Whoa, oh, my love
I don't know what to do
'Cause I can't see myself going away to stay
Oh no, I can't see myself leaving you, no
True love is so hard to find
Tell me, tell me that I've got mine
If I go searching for another
I'd just be wasting my time, yeah, hey
I say we're through, because I love you, yes, I do
If I leave you, baby, what would I do?
Whoa, oh, oh, my love
I wouldn't know what to do
'Cause I can't see myself leaving you
Whoa, oh, oh, oh
I can't see myself leaving you, no
I can't see myself
(I can't see myself)
Leaving you
(I can't see myself)
Whoa, no
(I can't see myself)
I can't see myself
(I can't see myself)
Whoa, my love
