Play Of The Waves Lyrics

in the arms of the world
let yourself unfurl
take a leaf out of my book
and watch the edges curl

in a ship made out of dreams
intimate with the seas
with maps of stars inside our heads
we'll sail it where we please

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.

This song feels like it gives valuable advice for anyone willing to take it: Let yourself be essentially exactly who you are. Transcend the stresses and everyday worries of the average person and let your hopes and dreams take you where they will. Relax and stop trying to find your place in the world because there's so much more out there waiting for you than the one-track life you might be setting yourself up for.
