I'll Be Home Soon Lyrics

Life it just goes on
When the traveler's gone
And that's the hardest part
Cause time has no respect
For a lonely man
With a longing heart
Cause once you're where you've wanted
Everything's so fast

But I'll be home soon
I'll be home soon

And if you have a place
Where you belong
You're a lucky one
For time was meant to waste
A laugh with good, old friends
Or walking hand in hand
I can't believe I'll be there
And this time I can stay

But I'll be home soon
I'll be home soon

So chariot come and swing low
Cause I'm hard to see
So far below
And this place tries so hard
To break a man
But I've tried to stand
But I'm drowning in its sorrows
I need to catch my breath

But I'll be home soon
I'll be home soon

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.
