Bodies and Minds Lyrics

O hold me O holy O golden O grace
Down here in fear, down where none can
hear
Any whisper, any word

Don’t wanna, you wanna
Don’t wanna, you wanna
Don’t wanna, you wanna
Don’t wanna, you wanna
Don’t wanna, you wanna
No sudden moves
Don’t wanna, you wanna
Don’t wanna, you wanna
Don’t wanna, you wanna
Don’t wanna, you wanna
Don’t wanna, you wanna
No sudden moves

Singing sorry to you, and sorry to you
Sleep won’t come till I’m sorry to you
For my body and my mind
Singing sorry to you, and sorry to you
Sleep won’t come till I’m sorry to you
From my body and my mind

Don’t wanna, you wanna
Don’t wanna, you wanna
Don’t wanna, you wanna
Don’t wanna, you wanna
Don’t wanna, you wanna
No sudden moves
Don’t wanna, you wanna
Don’t wanna, you wanna
Don’t wanna, you wanna
Don’t wanna, you wanna
Don’t wanna, you wanna
You wanna see it through

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

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 this song speaks for itself. At least...to anyone who cares to listen. The words alone don't make the song. It is a nice combination of lyrics and music that totally puts me in a mellowass mood.
