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.
It's a long way, ah, it's a long way
A long way, a long way
It's a long way to be happy
I just don't know if I can take it
It's a long way to be happy
I wonder if I'm gonna make it
Nothing I do seems like any fun to me
You just don't know what losing him has done to me
It's the middle of june but it feels like december
So little to look forward to and so much to remember
It's a long time to smile againi just don't know if I can do itit's a long time to smile againi wonder if I'm gonna get through it
I got to find a way to get a hold on myself againbefore I even try to give my love to someone else againthere are tears to be cried, I'm too close to rememberno tears can be born until the old ones have given
