Dance of Devotion Lyrics

You didn’t know how much I wanted you
You didn’t know how much I needed you
Shadows on the wall, staring from the bags
Pent-up frustration, failed to explode
Got a tear in the eye --
You didn’t want me

You didn’t know how much I wanted you
You didn’t know how much I needed you
How much I longed for you
And from my head to my heart to the space above the door
You didn’t know how much I wanted you
You didn’t know how much I needed you

You didn’t know?
You didn’t know?
You didn’t know?
You didn’t know?
You didn’t know?
You didn’t know?
You didn’t know?
You didn’t know?

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.
