On Her Mind Lyrics

She's wearing the tee-shirt
of a band I really like
maybe that's coincidence
maybe that's alright

I keep thinking about the way
she said "I'll see you soon"
was it more than words?

I'm just tryin' to find
what's on her mind?

I don't know when I'll see her
but I'm sure that I will
its just another matter of time
some more time to kill

I can imagine so many things
her and I sometime in the spring
...something's happening

I'm just tryin' to find
what's on her mind?

[CHORUS:]

(I want peace but I don't make it
I want love but I don't give it
i want hope but I can't find it
and I want her to heal me)

she's wearing the tee-shirt
of my favorite band
I should've told her
that I was a fan

people say I should just leave it be
leave it up to destiny
but that ain't for me

I'm just trying to find
what's on her mind?

[CHORUS and outros]

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.

someone once told me that his last name reminds them of condoms. i don't know what to say about that, but...i do know that i like this song, regardless of that. i just hope he doesn't follow the route of my boy John Mayer and get a flock of conformity queens, but with a song with words like "destiny" and "love" and such a nice beat...oh man. love its destiny this guy's gonna get popular. let's cherish the moment of secrecy, friends.
