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 can reach me
By railway
You can reach me
By trailway
You can reach me
On an airplane
You can reach me
With your mind
You can reach me
By a caravan
Cross the desert
Like an Arab man
I don't care how
You get here
Get here
If you can
You can reach me
By sailboat
Climb a tree
And swing
Rope to rope
Take a sled
And slide
Down the slope
Into these arms
Of mine
You can jump
On a speedy colt
Cross the border
In a blaze of hope
I don't care how
You get here
Get here
If you can
There are hills
And mountains
Between us
Always something
To get over
If I had my way
Surely you
Would be closer
I need you closer
There are hills
And mountains
Between us
Always something
To get over
If I had my way
Surely you
Would be closer
I need you closer
You can windsurf
Into my life
Take me up
On a carpet ride
You can make it
In a big balloon
But you better
Make it soon
You can reach me
By caravan
Cross the desert
Like an Arab man
I don't care
How you get here
Get here
If you can
I don't care
I don't care
I need you
Right here
Right now
I need you
Right here
Right now
Right
By my side
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Oh
I don't care how
You get here
Get here
If you can
