Hey Big Eyes
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 can picture you right now
At a window seat
Crying for nobody except the world
I can picture you right now
Running down the street
Late for nobody except the Moon
Hey, big eyes, can you swim
Swim down to me?
Hey, red star, can you burn
Burn down to me?
Picture me all messed up now
Can't talk to nobody
Can’t plan for anything
Except the rain
Today the flags will all fly green
At the embassies
You're here next to me
Except you're not
Hey, big eyes, can you swim
Swim down to me? (swim, swim)
Hey, red star, can you burn
Burn down to me? (burn, burn)
Hey, big eyes, can you swim
Swim down to me?
Hey, red star, can you burn?
Burn down, burn down
Hey, big eyes, can you swim
Swim down to me? (swim, swim)
Hey, red star, can you burn
Burn down to me? (burn, burn)
