You Gave Me Everything Lyrics

there are times when i look through the fears
and the past
and the tears
and the times i didn’t think you were there

and there you were standing there
all the time standing there
even when i told you no

there were times when i asked for you
asked for the truth "be true"
asked for my memories here
and at times i didn’t ask for much
but you gave me everything still

there were times i didn’t think you were there
but you were there all the time standing right there

and when i don’t think it through
when i don’t look for you
and when i don’t try my very best
you are there telling me
telling me i can be
anything i want to, now

and there you were standing there
all the time standing there
even when i told you no
and all those times when i asked for you
asked for you to tell the truth
you always told me what you knew

at times i didn’t ask for much
but you gave me everything, still

there were times i didn’t think you were there
but there you were standing there
all the time standing
right there

i didn’t ask for much
but you gave me everything
still

there are times when i look through the fears 
and the past 
and the tears 
and the times i didn’t think you were there

and there you were standing there 
all the time standing there 
even when i told you no

there were times when i asked for you 
asked for the truth "be true" 
asked for my memories here
and at times i didn’t ask for much 
but you gave me everything still

there were times i didn’t think you were there
but you were there all the time standing right there

and when i don’t think it through 
when i don’t look for you 
and when i don’t try my very best
you are there telling me 
telling me i can be 
anything i want to, now

and there you were standing there 
all the time standing there 
even when i told you no
and all those times when i asked for you 
asked for you to tell the truth 
you always told me what you knew

at times i didn’t ask for much 
but you gave me everything, still

there were times i didn’t think you were there
but there you were standing there 
all the time standing 
right there

i didn’t ask for much
but you gave me everything
still

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.
