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.
God, I guess I kinda forgot you,
but tonight I remembered your name,
which is why I'm callin' so late,
and I hope that you still feel the same.
But, how have you been doin', darlin'?
Say, don't you know who this?
I'm the one you used to laugh at,
I'm the one you used to kiss.
Well, you got four kids now, ain't that somethin',
Sorry, it must be this phone.
I'm too drunk to read my bible,
too sober to be here alone.
Yeah, well, I'm sorry to bother you,
It's been good to talk to you, too.
Yeah, I know, I won't call again, I promise,
But I never really got over you.
