Start + Stop Lyrics

i know you're looking for a start and stop
and i could give you what you want, oh love
i know you're looking for a start and stop
and i could give you what you want, oh yeah

bring yourself just a little closer, baby
you know what i like
give me something that will roll me over, baby
i don't want to feel like me tonight
make it real, make it right

i know you couldn't lay a finger on
but still you're sure thats's something wrong, oh yeah
i know you couldn't lay a finger on
but still you're sure thats's something wrong, oh yeah

bring yourself just a little closer, baby
you know what i like
give me something that will make me crazy, baby
i don't want to feel like me tonight
make it real, make it right

give me the smallest part of you
i need to know right now
if you're going
if you're going
if you're going...
well i wanna go there too
i wanna leave with you
i wanna go there too
i wanna leave with you
i wanna go there too
i wanna leave with you
i wanna go there too
i just wanna be with you

Here Is a Heart

i know you're looking for a start and stop
and i could give you what you want, oh love
i know you're looking for a start and stop
and i could give you what you want, oh yeah

you know what i like
give me something that will roll me over, baby
i don't want to feel like me tonight
make it real, make it right

i know you couldn't lay a finger on
but still you're sure thats's something wrong, oh yeah
i know you couldn't lay a finger on
but still you're sure thats's something wrong, oh yeah

bring yourself just a little closer, baby
you know what i like
give me something that will make me crazy, baby
i don't want to feel like me tonight
make it real, make it right

give me the smallest part of you
i need to know right now

well i wanna go there too
i wanna leave with you
i wanna go there too
i wanna leave with you

i just wanna be with you

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.
