If I Sit Still Lyrics

If I sit still and close my eyes
You haven't gone, you're by my side
The sun comes out and warms our skin
I squeeze your hand and it makes you grin
I kiss your lips and you kiss mine
We fall asleep and everything's just fine
We drive to town and kiss goodbye
Our day is a drag, but we'll meet at nine
A drink and chat about this and that
'Til it's time to leave, so back to the flat
You make some toast, I pour some wine
The TV is on, some old film of mine
Mark comes by and makes us laugh
We toast best friends and raise a glass

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.
