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 tell by the look on your face
That this is not the time or the place
To ask you why - or to even try
Just one look and I feel so alone
Took so long to realize I was wrong
And that's why I'm leaving here
I always knew that there'd be changes
You sometimes win, sometimes lose
I never thought I would lose so much tho'
Now what am I to do
I can tell by the look on your face
That this is not the time or the place
To ask you why - or to even try
Just one look and I feel so alone
Took so long to realise I was wrong
- and that's why I'm leaving here
- and that's why I'm leaving here
- and that's why I'm leaving here
