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.
Don't worry, I smile
I’ll miss you, but it's not like you're gone
Don’t worry, I smile
It's not like there won't be another one
We laughed about last year
The games we played, the songs we sang
The way we danced all night
Don't worry, I smile
We'll do all those things again next time
And I kiss you
So soft, so cold, so pale
The words are left unsaid
But we know, we always know
I can sing, I can dance, I can laugh
As if nothing ever changed
But without you, without you
It can never be the same
It can never be the same
It can never be the same
It can never be the same
Don't worry, I smile
I'll miss you, but it's not like you’re gone
Don’t worry, I smile
It's not like there won’t be another one
There won't be another one
However long I wait
There won't be another one
It will always be too late
There won't be another one
We won’t do it all again
There won't be another one
Without you
It can never be the same
It can never be the same
It can never be the same
So I can sing, I can dance, and I can laugh
As if nothing ever changed
Without you, without you
It could never be the same
