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.
It was just a quarter mile
To your house in Kensington
It was always 95 degrees
(Hey Julie)
Walking to the swimming pool
February back to school
All that summer you were cool
(Hey Julie)
I'm standing on the street of early sorrows
You never know just what you've lost
Until it's yours and then it's dust
But you remain and never rust
(Hey Julie)
I'm standing on the street of early sorrows
