Fast As You
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.
Maybe someday I'll be strong.
Maybe it won't be long.
I'll be the one who's tough.
You'll be the one who's got it rough,
It won't be long and maybe I'll be real strong.
Maybe I'll do things right.
Maybe I'll start tonight.
You'll learn to cry like me.
Baby, let's just wait and see.
Maybe I'll start tonight and do things right.
You'll control me,
Oh so boldly.
Rule me 'til I'm free.
'Til the pain that shakes me,
Finally makes me,
Get up off of my knees.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Maybe I'll be fast as you.
Maybe I'll break hearts too.
But, I think that you'll slow down.
When your turn to hurt comes around.
Maybe I'll break hearts and be as fast as you.
Uh.
You'll control me,
Oh so boldly.
Rule me 'til I'm free.
'Til the pain that shakes me,
Finally makes me,
Get up off of my knees.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Maybe I'll be fast as you.
Maybe I'll break hearts too.
But, I think that you'll slow down.
When your turn to hurt comes around.
Maybe I'll break hearts and be as fast as you.
Ahh.....
