It Works For Us Lyrics

I admit I'm a mess, but you love me for it
I am your little wrecking ball
I accept you're a wreck, I see beauty in it
You are my rush before the fall
Chorus
Baby, baby don't
get so crazy over what they're saying to themselves
Don't gotta please no body else
Baby, baby don't
get so crazy over what they're saying that love was
Cause this love, it works for us
Verse 2
I guess I'm second best, but you love me for it
I am your little runner-up
I accept your mood switch, each you is more perfect
You are mine, I can't get enough
Chorus
Bridge
Something here just aint quite right
Why do the lonely ones decide
What counts as love and what's just for fun
Something here just aint quite right
I know enough to know tonight
that this is love, and it work for us
Chorus

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 is so pretty. What I interpreted it to be about is two people in love and they don't care what anyone else thinks about them because they are happy.

His lyrics are so cute though.

"I guess I'm second best, but you love me for it I am your little runner-up I accept your mood switch, each you is more perfect You are mine, I can't get enough"

Omg Jimmy is so hot haha had to mention that.

xoxo Danica =D
