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't live with the world on your shoulders,
Your shoulders.
Take my hand and you'll see love will find us,
Will find us.
You've been lost in a dark place a long time,
A long time.
Now I'll find you, I'll stay here and hold you,
I'll stay, I'll hold you till morning,
I'll hold you tight.
You can't live with the world on your shoulders,
Your shoulders.
Come to me, say goodbye to your struggles.
I'll stay, I'll hold you till morning,
I'll hold you tight.
I'll stay, I'll hold you till morning,
I'll hold you tight.
Remember how far you've come
From the start till the end
Depend on me.
You can't live with the world on your shoulders.
I'll stay, I'll hold you till morning,
I'll hold you tight.
I'll stay, I'll hold you till morning,
I'll hold you tight.
You can't live with the world on your shoulders,
You can't live with the world on your shoulders.
Stay to the morning come,
Stay to the morning come,
Hold you to the morning light,
Hold you to the morning light.
