Platonically Yours Lyrics

Told a friend, wrote a song
Heeded his advice and moved along
I know I hurt you, baby.
For that I'm sorry.

I'm sorry I said that.
I'm sorry you're stressed out.
I wish I could help you and offer luck
But I'm all out.

There goes my friend, it wasn't wrong
To tell the truth, but it's been so long.
I know I hurt you, baby.
For that I'm so sorry.

I'm not sorry I said that
But I'm so sorry it stressed you out.
I wish I could help you and offer some love
But you're all out.

I hope one day I will understand
Whatever shape I'm in, I'm in, and stuck in.

I lost a friend. I must be strong.
I wasn't sure it would turn out wrong.
I know I hurt you, baby.
For that I'm sorry.

See, I'm not sorry I said that
But I'm sorry it stressed you out.
I'd really like to help you and offer some love
But I'm all out.

I hope one day I will understand
Whatever shape I'm in, I'm in, and stuck in.

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.
