Lose Again
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.
Here's a song that I wish I'd sung before Linda Ronstadt
sang it, this is a song that, perhaps you've never heard
her sing it actually, it's by a very young and talented
songwriter called Karla Bonoff. I don't know why I put it
in the act except I think it's really pretty. I hope you
do too... Thank you.
Save me
Free me from my heart this time
The train's gone down the track
And I, I've stayed behind
Nothing can free me
From this ball and chain
I made up my mind
I would leave today
But you're keeping me going
I know it's insane
'Cause I love you and lose again
When the heart calls
The mind obeys
Oh, it knows better than me
If I hold on
Just one more day
Then maybe, babe, you'd hear me true
'Cause nothing can free me
From this ball and chain
I made up my mind
I would leave today
But you're keeping me going
I know it's insane
Because I love you and lose again
Ooh, ooh
Nothing can free me
From this ball and chain
I made up my mind
I would leave today
But you're keeping me going
I know it's insane
'Cause I love you and lose again
Because I love you and lose again
