Lyrics
The Waltz
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 know it's the best I've seen
i'd never tell you that it don't mean a thing
i know it's the worst you've felt
you have every right to keep it to yourself
caught in the game of war
traded your heart for a hand better than before
say i let you down
oooh you pushed me out
i let you win
i let you win
i'm dancin' alone today
i can hear a waltz think it's calling out your name
it's saying I need you so
but please don't you say, don't you say
i let you down
but you, you pushed me out
i, i let you win
i let you win
