We're Gonna Have Us A Champagne Jam Lyrics

Something she left in me remains imperfect
My heart, proceeded to it's banishment
The blame may hang upon your chest
I know all hearts dance with comforts
And the wounds I bear will not live in vain
I know hearts dance comforts
I stumbled when I saw your intention
I screamed 'from my eyes flow compassion for you!'
Hoping words could move you
That this place is an enemy, full of harsh words and hearsay
And if this city were to go down in flames would you think to blow it out
With such a weak breath or run about the streets
Run about the streets, crying confusion

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 feel like this song is about being betrayed and not knowing how to deal with it.

when craig says "from my eyes flow compassion for you" it means he still cares and loves the person but he cant because of what they did, and this causes a strong confusion because how can you care about someone who hurts you in such a bad way?

"That this place is an enemy, full of harsh words and hearsay And if this city were to go down in flames would you think to blow it out"

I think this part means that if the person that hurt him witnessed their relationship falling apart would they ever think to fix it before it is completely gone

For the most part i just think the song is about not be willing to let go of someone you truely care about even when you know their not treating you the way you deserve

this song actually reminds me a lot of the night my mom went crazy. (i mean really crazy. she ended up in a mental health facility twice last year. she's bipolar.)

I can relate a lot to the chorus. it has that "deer in the headlights" kinda feel to it.

it's like "okay, i don't know why the hell you're doing what you're doing right now, but i will do anything to make you stop."

to me it doesn't seem so "oh why did you break up with me? woe is me!! insert dramatic music here"

it seems very hurried and scared and desperate which, at least to me, are feelings that run a lot deeper than "sad".

and the whole line with "this place is an enemy...etc." is actually a very good way of describing how you can attatch negative feelings to a place.

I still cry anytime i have to drive through the neighborhood my mom and i lived in last year. i mean, the environment in which bad things happen is where a lot of bad memories seem to come from.

this song really isn't as "la-ti-da" as people make it seem. it definately has something very genuine behind it. its a lot more universal than you would think.

to me, this song is about loving someone so much you'd be willing to do anything (even sacrafice your own happiness) to make things better for their situation.
