Sophie Lyrics

Just 'cos I know where she lives,
I won't stick around like adhesive
Instead I'll skin my knees
And wait between

She'll tug on my imagination
I wait for an indication
Systematic smiles with it

CHORUS
She's just so sweet so fine
So polite too
Sophie I'd like to be for you
But the only, only way I know
Takes so long, so long

Aglow from her aura
From far I'll adore her
Think I'll leave this coin
in my pocket

She'll tug on my imagination
I wait for that indication
Systematic smiles with it

CHORUS X 2

(So Long, So Long)

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.

New Zeraland music rocks. There is no better. I would rather NZ music to any other any day. This song is awsome, its meaning is pretty straightforward.

one of my close male friends dedicated this song 2 me b4 we were dating and i felt like crying everytime i heard it. He wasnt allowed 2 date me, but it was sad to know how he felt, that he couldnt have me and that he was waiting for the time when it was ready...i still love the song tho (even tho we have since dated and broken up)... GOODSHIRT ROCK...have a listen to their song 'Green', its even better

this song reminds me of a guy admiring a girl from a distance 'From far I'll adore her' and hes possibly too scared to approach her. We find out near the end of the song that she is in fact, a prostitute, when he says 'Think I'll leave this coin in my pocket', a bittersweet twist.

I don't the prostitute thing myself. Think it's more likely the coin is to call her from a phonebox....but he hasn't got the guts!
