Come Away With Me Now
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.
Hey--come away with me now.
Little bird, it's not safe here.
We'll escape, and here's how:
my carriage is waiting; if we drive all night
we can get to the river and get a boat by light.
Hey, come away and be mine and you'll never be lonely.
You'd be mad to decline.
When a house is on fire, one simply can't stay;
but you haven't said yes yet.
Please come away.
