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.
Catch the wind
See us spin, sail away
Leave today
Way up high in the sky
But the wind won’t blow
You really shouldn’t go,
It only goes to show
That you will be mine
By taking our time
And if you say to me tomorrow
Oh what fun it all would be
Then what’s to stop us, pretty baby
But What Is And What Should Never Be
So if you wake up with the sunrise
And all your dreams are still as new
And happiness is what you need so bad
Girl, the answer lies with you
And if you say to me tomorrow
Oh what fun it all would be
Then what’s to stop us, pretty baby
But What Is And What Should Never Be
Oh the wind won’t blow
And we really shouldn’t go
And it only goes to show
Catch the wind
We’re going to see it spin
We’re going to sail, leave today
Do do do, bop bop a do, oh
My my my my my my yeah
Everybody I know seems to know me well
But they’re never going to know that I move like hell
Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby. Oh lord
Baby baby babe. Huh? Oh I love ya
Do no no no no no no. C’mon now
I want you now
