The Cure
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.
I thought I'd give my love to anyone today
But when it came to you one thing was for sure
Well I know your little games and I don't wanna play
It's like takin' sick when nobody knows the cure
You come on like the princess of the junior prom
Always part of everything that's going down
Just looking for another fool to lean upon
In the center ring and everyone's your clown
Can't you see I've lost my nerve
I just can't face you
Perhaps I'll let the time erase you
Can't you see I've lost my nerve
I just can't face you
Perhaps I'll let the time erase you
I thought I'd give my love to anyone today
But when it came to you one thing was for sure
Well I know your little games and I don't wanna play
It's like takin' sick when nobody knows the cure
