tambourine Lyrics

if it were up to me you'd never be down
i got your telephone number from the lost and found
if you take my hand can you blow my mind
i don't really want to have to use revenge this time
but are you here to stay?
don't hesitate
baby i'm leaving when the fun runs out
don't you run out on me now

ya'know just give it a go, give it a go, give it a go
and when the going gets tough and the times get hard
these days will tear us apart, tear us apart, tear us apart
yeah ya'know they'll tear us apart
don't let them tear you apart

and are you here to stay?
don't hesitate
baby i'm leaving when the fun runs out
don't you run out on me now

ya'know just give it a go, give it a go, give it a go
and when the going gets tough and the times get hard
these days will tear us apart, tear us apart, tear us apart
yeah ya'know they'll tear us apart
baby i'm leaving this time

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.
