Kate Lyrics

thinking of the time I waste
staring into space thinking of you
never felt like this before
or had a girl I adore it's all so new
lost my nerve to ask you out
or call you on the phone
I must have fallen for you
cause I'm
Laying here alone
red and blonde and I am blue
I just wanted to be with you
foolishly I hesitate
but I just want to be with Kate tonight
thinking of you night and day
pictures just won't go away inside my mind
it doesn't
Matter what we do
Just as long as I'm with you for the rest of time
lost my nerve to ask you out
I'll get it back someday
if I can ever make you mine
I'll make sure you stay

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.

this is a pretty cool song - it's sad no one has come across it. actually .. the only reason i came across it myself is because "Kate" is my name and i was bored. it's funny because i felt like this before my boyfriend asked me out ... and i think he felt the same way. i think i'm gonna send this to him. also - i'll probably download it just to see what it sounds like.
