The Main Thing
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.
Look at my hand
There's a soul on fire
You can lead me even higher
The main thing
Everybody knows
When a good thing's gone
You can really turn me on
The main thing
You run through here
With your words of sand
I can nearly understand
The main thing
