If I Go
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.
If I go before you if I go before
I will not be crying I will not be crying
If I go before you if I go before
I will not be crying crying anymore
And it's only what I'm thinking
This is only what I'm thinking
When the day is over when the day is done
I will not be crying I will not be crying
When the day is over when the day is done
I will not be crying I'm not going to be the one
Who'll beg for the tears of laughter
Who'll beg for the tears of laughter
And down the dark will fall
And who's trapping who in a dream
And who's trapping who in reality
And who's trapping who in a dream
I am really tired I wish I could sleep
Carry me to morning carry me to morning
I am really tired I wish I could sleep
Carry me to morning I hope my life will keep
In a place where there are no windows
In this place where there are no windows
I wish I could be there when they call your name
I will not be crying I will not be crying
Maybe I will know you in another time
Then I will be happy then I will be happy
And safe in the arms of your love
I'll be safe in the arms of your love
And down the dark will fall
And who's trapping who in a dream
And who's trapping who in reality
And who's trapping who in a dream
