Lyrics
For You
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.
It would’ve been nice to see you coming
But that would’ve ruined the surprise
It would’ve been nice to have a picture-perfect world
But then the truth would hurt my eyes
It’s hard to see a picture drop before it hits the ground
It’s nice to know you’re here and you’re helping me down
You were always there when I needed
You could always see me clearly and
You were never looking for a thing
You...I’m singing one for you
It would’ve been cool to never fall down
But then I never would’ve seen
That power isn’t with the picture-perfect person
You taught me better things comefrom in between
It’s hard to see a picture drop before it hits the ground
It’s nice to know you’re here and you’re helping me down
You were always there when I needed
You could always see me clearly and
You were never looking for a thing
You...I’m singing one for you
It would’ve been nice to see you coming
But that would’ve ruined the surprise
It would’ve been nice to have a picture-perfect world
But then the truth would hurt my eyes
You were always there when I needed
You could always see me clearly and
You were never looking for a thing
You...I’m singing one for you
