These Days
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.
Is this it
These days I may not be so happy
After all, after all that I have gained
I still feel sad when I'm all alone
I may have felt that path? decay?
I may not be so swift after all
All the chances you have given me
I just let you go
I guess I've been like this before
Sometimes I can't stand up and be a man
But God why would I lose it now
When I need my strength at hand
You know sometimes I can be real cool
All the words just seem to flow right along
But when that girl approaches me
Well it all goes wrong
These days leave me hopelessly LUGUBRIOUS
I wish these days were gone
Oh please end
These days I may not be so happy
After all, after all the chances you have given me
I just let you go let you go
