If I Knew
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.
If I knew what was bothering you
I would run to your side
I don't know why
I would just die if you left me
Can't you see
What youre doing to me
Are you playing a game
Is it always the same
Am I to blame?
Or is anyone?
I don't want to settle down
With any other girl, but you
So I'm just gonna wait around
'Til you decide what you're gonna do
Can't you see
What you're doing to me?
Are you playing a game?
It's always the same?
Am I to blame?
Or is anyone?
I don't wanna settle down
With any other girl, but you
So I'm just gonna wait around
'Til you decide what you're gonna do
