The Watch Trick
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.
And now I know in my mind
Its time to feel round
Cos that is the best way to deal this I find
Oh, I don't know
Time goes so slow
And maybe its time to let go I don't know
I know its not right
Now I must wake I know I must take you home
How can I feel right
When you are the one
That I like to see and be with on a night
And all that I ask
Dont give your self away to easy
Dont give yourself to me
Now I know its not right my friend
Now I must wake I know I must take you home
Now I must take you home
Always I go alone
If you want to id like to stay
Cos if you always insist
I will have to resist cos noone likes that anyway
