A World Away Lyrics

I've been here before, trying to put my feeling into words. It just doesn't work. Feels like I’ve been gone forever, it seems it's been so long, since I’ve heard your voice. I need you here with me; so much it's hard for me to breathe. I've been gone far too long to face today alone. I try to think of another time, when I have felt this way, but nothing comes to mind. I feel I am a world away, there's so much distance between us. I need your touch, to see you smile, to sing to you, to hear your voice. To touch your hair, to make you laugh, to talk to you, to hold you close, but I’m a world away.

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.
