Same Old Story Lyrics

Same old story
In time for a warning
I'm gonna turn around
You'll be gone
A nice little goodbye
Songbird unheard
Your precious light will shine
Your precious light will shine

Don't make me wait
Now that I have come of age
Stranger today
Your precious light may come my way
I was not in for much
May be lost but I've been touched
Watch over me, let me be
Now's the time to lose yourself

Same old story
In time for a warning
I'm gonna turn around
You'll be gone
A nice little goodbye
Songbird unheard
Your precious light will shine
Your precious light will shine

Don't make me wait
Now that I have come of age
Stranger today
Your precious light may come my way
I was not in for much
May be lost but I've been touched
Watch over me, let me be
Now's the time to lose yourself

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.

Here we go again. LyricsFind doesn't have the right lyrics.

The ending of the chorus goes: "Now's the time to lose yourself". My original lyrics had all the words. I'd expect licensed lyrics to as well.
