So Long
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.
Don't look at me, you won't find me there
Found a lodger for my face
Don't bother asking where I have been
I sent someone in my place
Takes so long, to go wrong, say so long to yourself
It's so wrong, to go on, to go on with yourself
Don't trouble yourself to ask me
The odds are I can't tell
If I said I love you
I was talking to myself
Takes so long to go wrong, say so long to yourself
It's so wrong to go on, to go on with yourself
Takes so long when you're gone, say so long to yourself
It's so wrong to go on, to take on by yourself
