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'm playing my cards on the table no secrets,

no sense of direction its tough, baby,

it's no party I said something I lost a connection

And it's all I can do to forget about you

loving you is such a fascination

'cause I've loved you so long

and my love is so strong

but you know a certain party's missing

I'll sit by the window

now you sit anywhere that you want to

sitting in the sunshine now we're hoping,

as we're supposed to do

If I get down on my knees

would you forgive me, please

its only that my heart is aching

and it's all over you not a thing

I can do little pieces of my world are falling,

it's a good night

"Goodnight, Mr. Matthews.. now, no talking ..

the others are sleeping, there's always tomorrow ...."

.. better come back soon '

Cause I love only you

no other will do

loving you is such a fascination

and I've told you before

only you know the score

but you know a certain part is missing

if I go down on my knees

would you forgive me, please

it's only that my heart is breaking

but it's a very temporary thing

it just happens all the time

little pieces of my world are falling,

it's a good night
