Marlowe and Sophie Lyrics

what do you want me to do?
i fell in love from the start
as your heart grows colder
mine just breaks and breaks
are your memories of us
that far out of reach?
i sing about the same things
so tell me is it romantic or just pathetic?
do you love me?
if not then say so
and i will promise that this is our last song
do you love me?
if not then say so
and i will promise that this is our last song
i'm already two steps on the water
i threw in my shoes long ago
i'm just waiting on yours
so settle down with me
do you love me?
if not then say so
and i will promise that this is our last song
do you love me?
if not then so say so
and i will promise that this is our last song
this is our last song?
this is our last song?
this is our last song?

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.
