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.
your eyes look out at me
and I know what they see
the man who's devoted to you
tryin' to do the right thing
your gaze reflects my heart
and that's the place we start
to be devoted to
tryin' to do the right thing
the simple things
they are the magic
in a world of constant change this we know
and it's the road of devotion
that's the one less chosen
in an impulsive world
we could shine a light with our love
it's in your heart and mind
and I'll return in kind
to be devoted to
tryin' to do the right thing
the simple things
they are the magic
in a world of constant change this we know
and it's the road of devotion
that's the one less chosen
in an impulsive world
we could shine a light with our love
your eyes look out at me
and I know what they see
the man who's devoted to you
tryin' to do the right thing
...tryin' to do the right thing
