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.
Since the moment I spotted you
Like walking round with little wings on my shoes
My stomach's filled with the butterflies...and it's alright
Bouncing round from cloud to cloud
I got the feeling like I'm never going to come down
If I said I didn't like it then you know I'd lied
Every time I try to talk to you
I get tongue-tied
Turns out everything I say to you
Comes out wrong and never comes out right
So I'm singn' 'Why don't you and I get together and take on the world
And be together forever
Heads we will and tails we'll try again
So I'll say why don't you and I hold each other and fly to the moon
And straight on to heaven
Cause without you they're never going to let me in'
When's this fever going to break?
I think I've handled more than any man can take
I'm like a love-sick puppy chasing you around...and it's alright
Bouncing round from cloud to cloud
I got the feeling like I'm never going to come down
If said I didn't like it then you know I'd lied
Every time I try to talk to you
I get tongue-tied
Turns out everything I say to you
Comes out wrong and never comes out right
So I'm singn' 'Why don't you and I get together and take on the world
And be together forever
Heads we will and tails we'll try again
So I'll say why don't you and I hold each other and fly to the moon
And straight on to heaven
Cause without you they're never going to let me in'
And slowly I begin to realize this is never going to end
Right about the same you walk by
And I say 'Oh here we go again'
Every time I try to talk to you
I get tongue-tied
Turns out everything I say to you
Comes out wrong and never comes out right
So I'm singn''Why don't you and I get together and take on the world
And be together forever
Heads we will and tails we'll try again
So I'll say why don't you and I hold each other and fly to the moon
And straight on to heaven
Cause without you they're never going to let me in'
