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.
If I can stay away long enough maybe I'll forget you
If I can stay away long enough I'll lose my love for you
If I can get you out of my mind another love I'll try to find
Then live my life of happiness till the end of time
If I can stay away long enough maybe you'll forget me
I can stay away long enough if you'll just let me be
Cause I know our love affair could never last
So I'll just stay away and let it all be in the past
For I know our love affair...
