Majesty Lyrics

When I held your hand, when I held your hand,
When I helped you, when I held your hand,
You still went the other way and you wanted me to stay,
With my arms stretching away, with my arms stretching away.
I couldn't stand that sight 'cause I adored your face.
I adored your face.

Could it be that I'm the same?
Could it be I'm your mirror,
Showing you all those things that you never wanted to face.
So you let me slip away,
You just watched me walk away,
And I just have to ask, do you know your fate?
Do you know your fate?

Could it be that I'm your...
Could it be that you are my...
Majesty.

When it all comes back, when it all falls into place,
Could it be that I don't want it anyway?
Could it be as sad as that?
There was a day we used to laugh and I wanted you by my side,
The perfect match,
I want to understand it,
The perfect match.

Could it be that I'm your...
Could it be that you are my...
Majesty.

You could've been my king (x3)

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.

This is one of the best songs I have ever heard. I think it is about a romance that probably missed the boat. The timing was always off.

This song continues to grow on me. I think it's about a girl who loves this guy, but he doesn't love her back. When starts to love her, she doesn't love him back. And it just goes on and on and on... as Jenbee ^^ said, the timing was always off.
