Drifting 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.
You can't see what you mean to me
I just can't get you out of my head
You move me more than I've ever been
Like a wild supersonic jet
But I can see your love drifting away
And I don't want your love d-d-d-drifting away
I got told by a friend of mine
That you don't want me anymore
Now my friend's got a broken nose
Sure and I got a broken jaw
So don't push me around, throw me away
And I don't want your love d-d-d-drifting away
Don't you know what I'm living for
Don't you know what I'm trying to say
Don't try to shove me outta that door
'Cos you're mine and it's staying that way
I'm giving you my love just throw it away
But I can see your love d-d-d-drifting away
Oh drifting away you got me drifting away
Oh drifting away
