It Wasn't the Same Somehow Lyrics

they played the records that we all know
they played em fast and they played em slow
with crazy lights and the music loud
it just wasn't the same somehow
it wasn't the same somehow

i wish we could dance the same as before
but i don't have it in me anymore
same dinner at the same cafe
you kept asking if i was okay
no i can't explain it even now
it just wasn't the same somehow
it wasn't the same somehow

the sweetest air and not a cloud in sight
i walked you home and i said goodnight
when you asked me up to the house
it just wasn't the same somehow
it wasn't the same somehow

i wish we could kiss the same as before
but i don't have it in me anymore
i don't have it in me anymore
i don't have it in me anymore

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.

I love this song, and it's the only one he didn't do when we saw him play last week. I don't know of any other song that conveys the sense of creeping indifference that comes with age.

At work we have an expression "mentally resigned" for someone who is looking for another job, and has mentally left us, but they just don't have another job yet.

This is the same, only in a relationship. The relationship is dying, nearly dead, but they're still doing the same things they've always done.

Been there, done that myself. This is my favorite Casiotone song. It captures those feelings perfectly.
