Because I Want To
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.
I'm gonna send my heart away
From here in cold moon light
I'm gonna turn myself in
Even though I've done no crime
What do you say? What do you say?
Do you think you can see it my way?
Because I want to
Now there's a hard part coming up
I hope you're feeling fine
It's the same thing every day
I say, yeah, it's alright
Let's run away, run away
Do you think you will be better some day?
Because I want to
There's a cloud hanging over
Every town I have been through
Feel the warm rays flowing out of me
And into you
Oh yes, I do, yes, I do
Yes, I do, yes, I do, yes, I do
Because I want to
A bunch of space junk
Fell in the street last night, yeah, yeah
A bunch of space junk
Fell in the street last night, yeah, yeah
But no one saw I was the only one there, yeah, yeah
Sometimes I feel so alone, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Hey, hey, hey
Baby, sometimes I feel the whole world
Is shutting me down, down, down
Because I want to, baby, because I want to, yeah
You know I, I get the funny little feeling
You don't want me around, around
Hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey
