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.
Dreams that have flown down the hall
tears that were sown on despair
summer's turned fall
it don't matter at all
when I wake and find you lying there
Sweet silence and soft auburn hair
Blues gonna dance through the sky
time's gonna roll soft as rain
sigh after sigh is gonna pass by and by
ah love's gonna fly on the wind
when I gaze into your brown eyes again
All the things I've seen
and the places that I've been
don't mean a thing since I found you
all that matters now
since I've won your love somehow
are these plans I keep makin'
not to lose you
So sleep till the moon slips away
I'm hopin' all you're dreamin' comes true
when you rise with the day
I might not have too much to say
but you know that doesn't mean
that I don't love you
ah you know that doesn't mean
that I don't love you
All the things I've seen
and the places that I've been
don't mean a thing since I found you
all that matters now
since I've won your love somehow
are these plans I keep makin'
not to lose you
Dreams that have flown down the hall
tears that were sown on despair
summer's turned fall
it don't matter at all
when I wake and find you lying there
Sweet silence and soft auburn hair
Sweet silence and soft auburn hair
