Because Of You
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 used to hang my head down low
Never knowing which way I was going
My life was getting close to the edge
And I knew that it was showing
Because of you
I can stand and hold my head up high
Because of you
I feel free and yet I don't know why
Each morning is a spring time song
With the sun up in the sky
The sadness that is on your face
Helped me to realise
I owe each day I have to you
And I'll pay you back some day
You're reading me like a book
But I really would like to say
Because of you
I can stand and hold my head up high
Because of you
I feel free and yet I don't know why
Yes I do, it's you
And I'll pay you back some day
Because of you
I have finally found my way
