Long Winter Lyrics

Everything is moving too fast, and you don't care
how am i supposed to feel now that you're not there?
now that you're not there..
now that you're not there...
well i know how it feels
yeah i know how it feels
yeah i know how it feels
to be all alone
every breath you take i take too
all i really wanted is you
again, my friend...
well you say it's all up to me
you think i dont know
but if you broke my heart right now
you're still gonna go
yeah you're still gonna go
yeah you're still gonna go
cause i know how it feels
yeah i know how it feels
yeah i know how it feels
to be all alone
every breath you take i take too
all i really wanted was you..
again, my friend...
and you say a thousand years won't change your mind
i've got to get get out of here before you change your mind
i wish you'd change your mind
i wish you'd change your mind
cause you'll never be mine
i wish you'd change your mind
i wish you'd change your mind
cause you'll never be mine
no you'll never be mine
no you'll never be mine..
again!!

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 is so singable (all CTD songs are) but this one is especially. Although the lyrics suggest that the guy is unhappy (wishful thinking...what ifs) the music is somehow uplifting. I love the piano (or keyboard--whatever), it's so simple yet so elequant. I also love the use of the symbals during the "yeah I know how it feels..." bit.
