Drip Drop Teardrop Lyrics

I'm gonna watch you
while you get me wrong
I'm gonna sing
until you hate this song
I'm gonna tell
you in my sweetest voice
I'm gonna choose you
'cause you have no choice
This funny thing we've got
is never gonna stop, oh no

I'm gonna take you
to the wilderness
I'm gonna show you
things you might have missed
I'm gonna kiss
the parts that you have lost
It's gonna cost you
but you might hurt less

This funny thing we've got is never gonna stop until drip drop teardrop
Will we ever learn?

I'm gonna work
'til we get it on
I'm gonna love you
'til we get along
And when your ears and your eyes are sore
I'm gonna love you
just a little bit more
This funny thing we've got is never gonna stop until drip drop teardrop

Will we ever, will we ever, will we ever learn?

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 think that this is about a girl who is obsessed with her love interest and will do anything for him to love her back.

In a way this song reminds of the struggles of parenting. You would never give up on your child. You'll even let them hate you, if it means protecting them.
