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.
"i think when you tell the truth, whether it's positive or negative, you reach people. and people like to know that i'm not by myself, i'm not alone."
Oh, if you've seen me running through some streets in life
Baby it's all right, don't even pay me no mind
I'm just looking for, for my yesterday
Some are lonely memories, i watch them fade and fade away
The night will come and the dawn will fall
Put that falling bird, put it back in its nest
And that bird would sing, sing out loud, ooh sing out loud
Through its breast
I always do something to make her cry
I can tear a castle down
And i always liked lollipops, lollipops falling through the rain
Pressed against some gentle mind
If you've seen me running through some streets in life
Baby it's all right, don't even pay me no mind
I'm just looking for, for my yesterday
Some are lonely memories, i watch them fade and fade away
Ohh ooh, sweet baby of mine
Whatever happened to those good times
Ohh
Sweet, sweet baby of mine
Whatever happened to those good times
"people like to know that i'm not by myself, i'm not alone."
