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.
I know I made you cry
with some of those crazy things I did
and lots of times you thought
that I was acting like a kid
But I want you to know my love
that everything I did
I didn't do for myself
I did it all...I did it all for you
I may have said a lot of things
you didn't understand
but all I ever tried to do
was lend a helping hand
All I ever wanted darling
was to be your man
I thought you knew
I did it all...I did it all for you
yeah, I did it all for you
Alright sometimes I cheated
and yes I guess I lied every now
and then but before you go
I want you to know
how much I cried darling,
darling, darling ooh (baby)
Someday you'll be looking back
and you'll see I'm not so bad
when you think about all the joy
and happiness we had
the times I made you happy
when I was feeling sad and blue
I did it all...I did it all for you
I did it all for you so go on (baby)
go and leave me if you want to
but I did it all for you
I did it all for you
I did I did I did it all for you
I did I did I did it all for you
