Simon
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.
In hersham there's a lonely spot
Where a boy has been forgot
He told his mum and he told his dad
Life for him is being bad
Oh he got what he wanted
He's gone now yeah he's gone now
All his life was just a dream
Acting out the tv screen
Wanted to do what he has seen
Playing the part of the final scene
Oh he got what he wanted
He's gone now yeah he's gone now
Oh simon don't you cry for him
Oh simon don't you ever give in
You knew he was going away
It had to happen that way
People used to say he's mad
But only his brother knew he was sad
Simon used to say to me
I hope he gets what he wants to be
Oh he got what he wanted
He's gone now yeah he's dead now
