Take Another Look
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.
Shadows falling on my day
And time is standing still
You see things in a different way
A way that no one will
They're going to take the very thing
That's closest to your heart
They cannot mend your broken wings
You knew it from the start
So tell me...
Don't you want to take another look away
Don't you want to play the whole thing down
Don't you want to take another look away
Don't you want to take a look around
And rivers rolling to the sea
Clouds are breaking high
You can't find tranquility
Wherever it may hide
You played the game and now it's time
To keep the fire low
Silver trains are rolling by
You have no place to go
So tell me...
Don't you want to take another look away
Don't you want to play the whole thing down
Don't you want to take another look away
Maybe you could turn it all around
Your eyes are dim your heart is blue
Cause nothing ever lasts
It's all too many miles to you
The best of friends must pass
So tell me...
Don't you want to take another look away
Don't you want to play the whole thing down
Don't you want to take another look away
Maybe have another go around
