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 doing that thing you do
Breaking my heart into a million pieces
Like you always do
And you don't mean to be cruel
You never even knew about the heartache
I've been going through
And I tried and tried to forget you, girl
But it's just so hard to do
Everytime you do that thing you do
I know all the games you play
And I'm gonna find a way to let you know
That you'll be mine someday
'Cause we could be happy, can't you see?
If you'd only let me be the one to hold you
And keep you here with me
Cause I try and try to forget you, girl
But it's just so hard to do
Everytime you do that thing you do
I don't ask a lot, girl (I don't ask a lot)
But I know one thing is for sure (Know one thing is for sure)
It's the love that I haven't got, girl
And I just can't take it anymore
(Woah!!)
'Cause we could be happy, can't you see?
If you'd only let me be the one to hold you
And keep you here with me
'Cause it hurts me so just to see you go
Around with someone new
And if I know you, you're doing that thing
Everyday just doing that thing
I can't take you doing that thing you do
