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.
Breaking my back just to know your name
Seventeen tracks and I've had it with this game
Breaking my back just to know your name
But heaven ain't close in a place like this
Anything goes but don't blink you might miss
Cause heaven ain't close in a place like this
I said heaven ain't close in a place like this
Bring it back down, bring it back down tonight
Never thought I'd let a rumor ruin my moonlight
Well somebody told me
You had a boyfriend
Who looked like a girlfriend
That I had in february of last year
It's not confidential
I've got potential
Ready, let's roll onto something new
Taking its toll and I'm leaving without you
Cause heaven ain't close in a place like this
I said heaven ain't close in a place like this
Bring it back down, bring it back down tonight
Never thought I'd let a rumor ruin my moonlight
Well somebody told me
You had a boyfriend
Who looked like a girlfriend
That I had in february of last year
It's not confidential
I've got potential
A rushin', a rushin' around
Pace yourself from me
I said maybe baby please
But I just don't know now
When all I wanna do is try
Well somebody told me
You had a boyfriend
Who looked like a girlfriend
That I had in february of last year
It's not confidential
I've got potential
A rushin', a rushin' around
