Saw You Running
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.
When I lay down to take my rest
Most of the time my minds on happiness, yes
Some of the time but not for long
I get a feeling of something that's yet to come
I get a picture telling me what's undone
When I find out that you don't love me honey
When I find out that your going away
There'll be no surprise
Because I saw you running
Saw you running from where I lay
There'll be no surprise
Because I saw you running
Saw you running from where I lay
Well I've got an eye upon the road
And I've got a hand to hold my heavy load oh yes
I've got a man and I've got a gun
One is for fighting oh the other one is just for fun
One is for fighting oh the other one is just for fun
When I lay down to take my rest
Most of the time my minds on happiness, yes
Some of the time but not for long
I get a feeling of something that's yet to come
I get a picture telling me what's undone
