Papa
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
Needed you to love me
But you
Did not know how to love
Papa
You've been gone too long
Papa
I'm so glad you're home
You
Were living in a separate world
I
Tried so hard to impress you
Papa
You've been here before
And papa
I'm not as strong as you are
I can finally see
Looking through your eyes
I will try to honour you with my life
Papa
You've been gone too long
Papa
I'm so glad you're home
