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.
Say you!
I can hear the groove
I can hear the words
I can climb the scale
I can ride the curvess
I can hit the note
I can beat the beat
I can dance the jump
I can tap my feet
Say you!
Getting closer
Stop me dreaming
Wanna feel you
You're so close
Ah can't write now
Wanna feel a hit
Ah can't drive now
Wanna phone you
Can't play it very well
But it is what I want
And what I want is what it takes
It could be slick
It could be fake
Can't play it very well
But it is what I want
And what I want is what it takes
It could be slick
It could be fake
Say you!
Can't hear you
You're so close
Wanna feel you
You're so close
Ah can't write now
Wanna feel a hit
Ah can't drive now
Wanna phone you
Say you!
I can hear the groove
I can spell the words
I can climb the scale
I can ride the curves
I can hit the note
I can drop the beat
I can dance and jump
I can tap the feet
Can't play it very well
But it is what I want
And what I want is what it takes
I could be slick
It could be fake
Say you!
Can't hear you
You're so close
Wanna feel you
You're so close
Ah can't write now
Wanna feel a hit
Ah can't write now
Wanna phone you
Getting Closer
Stop me dreaming
Wanna feel you
You're so close
Ah can't write now
Ah wanna feel a hit
Ah can't drive now
