Terrible/perfect
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.
now it seems so terrible, at the time it didn't seem like much All the months and miles in between us
and it's terrible..
Save some place in your mind
I'm getting good at time
Save some space in your mind
I'm getting out of time
Once in awhile there's this girl
I don't know in my dreams she reminds me of a lot of people, but she's someone that
I've never seen and she's perfect..
Save a place in your mind
I'm getting good at time
Save some space in your mind
I'm getting out of time
