Even When I'm Blue Lyrics

I've always heard that love is blind
I knew that there's another kind
Shines like a beacon in the night
Holds up in the morning light

'Cause in my dreams, she travels with me when I run
And in my dreams, she takes my hand when I make my stand
And the morning always comes

I know it's too good to be true
She loves me even when I'm blue
No-one can say I ain't tried
I keep on searchin' far and wide
'Cause I know she's out there somewhere now
I'm gonna track her down somehow

'Cause in my dreams, she travels with me when I run
And in my dreams, she takes my hand when I make my stand
And the morning always comes

I know it's too good to be true
She loves me even when I'm blue

'Cause in my dreams, she travels with me when I run
And in my dreams, she takes my hand when I make my stand
And the morning always comes

And I know she's looking for me too
She loves me even when I'm blue
She loves me even when I'm blue

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.
