Lyrics
Beat The Time
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 notice me-I notice you
I see alot of things that neither of us do
I notice me-I notice you too
And there are simple things that we don't even try anymore
Theres a way out of this
Beat the time
and everytime I turn around
We got some clever way to put each other down
and everytime I turn away
I can't decide if I should go or should I stay
with you
Theres a way outa this
Beat the time
We can't leave these problems behind
So close the door and open your mind
