I've Got You Lyrics

I've got doubts I can’t even count.
I've got mirrors that take me apart.
I've got blues, a nothing revolt.
I've got songs that stall when they start.
I've got you babe.
Diamonds and pearls, babe.
I've got you girl, that’s all I need.

I've got rockets from Brooklyn to Goal.
I've got nightmares about waking up.
I've got Senators I never consult.
I've got a wintering heart in a lead coat.
I've got you, babe.
More than a feeling, babe.
I've got you, girl, that’s all I need.

I've got black bones, wrinkling.
I've got walls, and walls, and walls.
I've got friends I only insult.
I've got so many people I need to call.
But I've got you, babe.
Late, our love, babe.
I've got you babe.
I want you to want me, babe.
I've got you girl, that's all I need.

I've got symbols and idols, everywhere.
I've got no good news, and a family disease.
I've got true things that come back corrupt.
I've got bad manners, I never say please.
But I've got you, babe.
Don't stop believin', babe.
I've got you, babe.
Kick-start my heart, babe.
I've got you babe.
Sweet child of mine, babe.
I've got you babe.
Why are we startin' something, babe?
I've got you babe. (x7)
Yeah, I've got you babe.

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.
