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.
You didn't say it the way that you should
No you didn't do it the way I thought you would
Then how come you're saying that I should have known,
And there is no prove that you told me the truth
I've got to get you, get you off my mind
But it's just only a matter of time.
You came to me so tender like true
Speaking words from your lips that taste as sweet as your lips
But when you're gone and I am left alone,
There you are with Tom telling him the same sweet story.
I've got to get you, get you off my mind
But it's just only a matter of time.
