If You Went Away
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.
Oh if I could just make your heart understand
The way I feel when I'm holding your hands
My world is safe and is worth living for
Even more with you
I've learned to treasure each moment of time
You've even taught me how high love can fly
The very thought of you kiss and I soar
Even more, even more
My heart is bursting to say even more
You are my smiling sky
You are my sun and my rain, my lost southern snow
And so can you imagine
If you went away
If I should lose you for one precious day
I think I'd cry the biggest teardrops the whole wide world
