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.
Sit down beside me and stay awhile
Let our hearts do their parts
With wine and words to meet the hours
So the day never starts
Cause that's what I want
That's what we need
'Cause that's who we are
'Cause that's what we need
Lalalalala lalalalaa
Sit down beside me and stay awhile
There are shadows
Till we're old and grey
Till we've got nothing left to say
'Cause that's what we are
That's what we need
'Cause that's who we are
That's what we need
Aaaahhhhh lalalalaa
That's what we need
Aaahhh lalalala
'Cause that's who we are
Aaahhhh lalalalaa
That's what we need
Aaahhh lalalala
I lay, lay low
Deep in time tonight
I lay, lay low
Deep in time tonight
Stay awhile
I lay, lay low
You can talk to me now
Stay awhile
Sit down beside me and stay awhile
Till the night runs away
Till the morning rises and we part our ways
Till the end of our days
