Only In Dreams Lyrics

i have seen you for the past four years, but not in a lucid state. i can close my eyes and see you. dial two. help you move in the rain. that green shirt hasn't faded. four years have passed, but not a moment has changed. growing older, and living the same day. only in dreams can you sing to me. only in dreams can i hear you speak. when i wake up, i feel 20 years old again. only when i rise from bed do i realize that it wasn't real. four summers have gone without the same life that provided so much energy. that barrier is distance and mental states. if i close my eyes i can see you. only in dreams can you sing to me. only in dreams can i hear you speak.

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.
