East Coast Is For Lovers Lyrics

big pauses in my life and the thoughts of you that rush in to my mind
of times we shared beneath those star filled skies
my eyelids close to the image of your face
i remember how i left my heart on your front doorstep and drove home all alone
wanting to hold you

and i'd tell you all that i can exactly all the things that you
want to hear from me
how i feel so alone now and wish you'd come running at me
with open arms and big bright eyes
but i tell myself "try and move on" and tackle another bought over you
and remember how i left my heart on your front doorstep

my eyelids close to the image of your face
i remember how i left my heart on your front doorstep and drove home all alone
all alone
why is it me who always ends up alone?

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 suchhhh a good song. A lot of people don't care much for his voice but I'ts great when you listen to the lyrics and the harmony he produces towards the end of the song. I, personally, think that his voice is nice though.
