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 you'll only give me time
All the heartache that he left behind
Will fade from my mind
I'll be free to love again
If you'll only give me time
I'll forget I even knew his name
Forget that he came
I'll be no good till I can
Try to understand
But when I'm sure I need him no more
That's when I'll reach out for your hand
So darling give me time
And you will see that I'm
Ready to love you
Just as you love me
Wait awhile
'Til I can find my smile
And I'll be yours for as long as I live
If you'll only give me time, yeah
So darling give me time
And you will see that I'm
Ready to love you
Just as you love me, oh
Wait awhile
'Til I can find my smile
And I'll be yours for as long as I live
If you'll only give me time
