Before My 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.
Yes I know that I'm about to lose you cause someone else is always on your mind
Why must I have to give you up and give my heart up too
For a love that came along before my time
You say with me you think you've made a big mistake
Well good luck I hope your ending turns out fine
It's gonna hurt a long long time that's the price I'll pay
For a love that came along before my time
Well please don't blame me if I stay in love with you
And while I'm alone if I pretend that you're still mine
I can stand my loneliness if I know you're not blue
With a love that came along before my time
With a love that came along before my time
