The Boy
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.
I can't stop, I can't breathe, I can't think
I'm in love again
I don't need, I don't eat, I don't sleep
I'm in love again
Ooh, and every time I heard you breathe
Well I sighed
Ooh, and every time I saw you bleed
Well I cried
Love is like a song
And if you sing
If you ever need me
I'll be there in a while
I can't stop, I can't breathe, I can't think
I'm in love again
I don't need, I don't eat, I don't sleep
I'm in love again
Ooh, and everytime that I'm with you
I'm alive
Ooh, and everytime I think of you
There's a light
And I felt it, too
In my heart is a spring
Is a well, if you need
If you drink, if you heal
If you believe in
Every little part of me is a part of you
I can't stop, I can't breathe, I can't think
I'm in love again
I don't need, I don't eat, I don't sleep
I'm in love again
I can't stop, I can't breathe, I can't think
I'm in love again
I don't need, I don't eat, I don't sleep
I'm in love again
The boy, the boy's in love
The boy, the boy's in love
The boy, the boy's in love
The boy, the boy's in love
