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.
Yeah, I will love you for a while
Just how long I cannot say
Long before love grows old
I'll be on my way
While there's fire in your eyes
I will hold you to my heart
Oh, but when the fire dies
We will have to part
Love is strange
While now it makes us glad
When our love's no longer new
It'll make us sad, yeah
So, I will love you for a while
More than that I will not tell
When I leave you
You will say that I loved too well
Yeah, love is strange
While now it makes us glad
When our love's no longer new
It'll make us sad, yeah
So, I will love you for a while
More than that I will not tell
And when I leave you
You will say that I loved too well
Say that I loved too well, boy
Say that I loved too well, yeah
Say that I loved too well-ell
Say that I loved too well, child
Say that I loved too well
