Song For Today Lyrics

Stars and stars, and we can't see far
And we don't have time, and we can't climb up to you
Star light, star bright, and it's you I'm dreaming of tonight
My clammy hand grasps out tonight, just before I lost my confidence
But it didn't reach you right, not quite, but it's you I'm dreaming of tonight
Star light, star bright, or are my fingers through your hair last night?
And it seemed no matter how hard I try I couldn't count them all, no I couldn't get it right, but I really tried

Star light, star bright
Dreamed of you last night

I (?)
It was beautiful to see it
I couldn't concentrate
There's so many stars

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.
