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.
Hey, look over your shoulder
Hey, as we're gettin' older
Always thought I should've told you
It's all right, it's sure gettin' colder
I know you're over my shoulder
I know now you'll get to hold her
You're gone
But it can't be wrong
You're gone
Can't be for long
You walked over my shoulder
You came cause I told you
You thought I knew it was over
All you knew was to hold her
You're gone
It can't be wrong
You're gone
Don't stay for long
You figure it, you don't get to be
I'm wrong whatever it's still the same
Well, I know it's over your shoulder
I know what you'll get to hold her
When I wake up
And you were gone
When I wake up
I knew all along
When I wake up
And you were gone
When I wake up
I knew all along
You're gone
But it can't be wrong
You're gone
Don't stay too long
You're gone
But it can't be wrong
You're gone
Can't be for long
