Make 1, 2
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.
There's someone across the street
Who sees me waiting for my friend
Then I cross the street, make a bee line
For that phone, oh that one to make it happen
Oh to live to find a friend
Someone tried to call me up
But I don't even have a phone
She could ask to me what's up
But I'm waiting for your call to end
There's someone across the street
Who sees me waiting for my friend
She could ask to me what's up
I'm waiting for your call to end
Someone tried to call me up
But I don't even have a phone
It's like my friends don't know I'm here
But I'm a person on my own
But I cross the street, make a bee-line for that phone
I'm the one to make it happen
And to find a friend
I make a bee-line
Oh to find a friend
I cross the street
I make a bee-line
Oh a bee-line
Oh make a bee-line
Oh, I cross the street
