You Love Me Lyrics

i moved around from town to town
lots of people around, but still so lonely

friendships would grow then i'd hit the road
making up excuses for why i had to leave

always been too scared and unprepared
to let anybody get too close to me

but when i met you right away i knew
you would never ever ever hurt me

and the road's still long but you come along
and you hold my hand and you understand

when i look at you i can't believe it's true
you're all i ever dreamed of and you love me
and you love me, and you love me

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.

This song means a lot to me. I am never able to trust people and I have problems letting people get close to me. I met my boyfriend 10 months ago and we've been dating since then, with me moving off to college we've had a lot of stuff to go to but he's still holding my hand through it. This song helps to remind me how much i love him and to remind me that he loves me and fights for us more than anyone ever should. Kimya Dawson is an incredible song writer.

This song really just is so soothing. I listen to it when I'm down, and it just brings me up, because I know that someone has to love me. The tune just calms me and it's perfect.
