What's On My Mind Lyrics

Baby I would do anything for you
Nobody's ever treated me
quite like you do
I've wasted too much time
I've wasted too much time
And I'm gonna tell you
what's on my mind
Yea yea

I was wrong all along
There could be somebody like thee
Here we are finally
I've found my
I've found my

Maybe it'll be quite sometime
I love you forever
and we will be waiting in time
I'm wasting no more time
I'm wasting no more time
I'm always gonna tell you
what's on my mind
Yea yea

I was wrong all along
There could be somebody like thee
Here we are finally
I've found my
I've found my

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 heart this song.

I did finally find my... :-) And I was foolish and wasted a lot of time, and am now kicking myself. We may be seperated by 215.67 miles, but I am not wasting any more time not being with him.
