Followed The Waves Lyrics

Feel me
Sneaking around again
Am I hanging around again
Can't you see
That my heart lies
My heart lies to you
I followed the waves to you
I've got to see it through
That My heart lies to you
Never have me true
(I lie I lie)
Please don't
Please don't make ammends
See me
See me slip again
Break my heart
Carve the fate
Seal the deal
My heart lies
My heart lies to you
I followed the waves to you
I've got to see it through
That my heart lies to you
You'll never have me true
I followed the waves to you
I've got to see it through
That my heart lies to you
I'll never stay with you
Between my fire sighs
and my burning eyes
my heart burns wildly in his eyes
he's just a drunken gambling man
dealing with the hands of desires span
i'm gonna shuffle his deck clean
i'm gonna shuffle his deck clean

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.

yeah, i'm surprised by lack of comments! I guess this is about female dominance and wanting to be strong and unbreakable. I like the metaphors of gambling... lol

this is an excellent song from melissa. What i got from the song was that she is kindoff playing a game or gambling with her significant other. She dosnt want him to try to patch things or "make ammends" She has followed her heart(the waves) carefully and has come to the realization that she is not true to him."my heart lies to you, youll never have me true.She has alot of feelings for him but she cant stay with him. There are two many ups and downs between them.Shes emotionally drained "Between my fire sighs and my burning eyes" She finds herself pretending too much..

What do you others think..? Im just a guy so my opinion is limited.
