Pure Intentions
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.
you're a strong one, you're a lion
you're brave, death defyin'
you're in your car, crossing town.
and i can feel you, coming down.
you're so pretty, i could burst
and i wonder, who's gonna talk first
my muscles all shaking, and blood's turned to foam
it's tuesday, and you're coming home.
yeah!
