All My Life Lyrics

Oh how the times have changes us
Sure and now uncertain
Men not devils have claimed us
Purity deserting
God's one miracle
lost in circles

All my all my life
revolves around
laughter and crying
as my life turns
round and round

Cannon fire burning
on the hillside
You and I are side by side
Listen
Tin soldiers playing our tune

All my all my life
revolves around
laughter and crying
as my life turns
round and round and round

Songs for life's lost lovers
bitter sweet their healing
Their prayers prayed under covers
need not kneeling
God's one miracle
moves in circles

All my all my life
revolves around
laughter and crying
as my life turns
round and round

All my all my life
revolves around
laughter and crying
as my life turns
round and round
and round
and round

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

what the hell??? no comments??? My most favourite sad Bunnymen song. One of the best lyrics in all songs is in the cannon fire section. I can picture it all in my head, and it looks like the civil war times. Simple and romantic.

You're right this and all of their songs deserve more comments. So here's number 2. What a great band. If you haven't heard them, give them a listen.
