Lyrics
Could have been
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.
Relying on myself dear
But always only needing you
You've always been so stubborn
I don't know what you had to prove
At least I have the memories
Though the good ones left are few
In another time
And another world
I would be your guy
And you'd be my girl
When you think about
All that we've been through
It took me so long to realize what I had to do
Thinking about the days
That I should have asked for more
There it goes reality
Running knocking at your door
You can avoid it all you want
It'll catch up to you soon
Won't even see it coming
Another fateful afternoon
I knew it all along
Exactly what went wrong
And now I sing this song
And now I sing this song but you can't hear me
