Forget the Past Lyrics

You'll be the wave that will gain
You'll be the the water on stain
You'll be there calling my name
Jamie, Jamie
You have a warrant to kill
All of my fears, then spill
Into me all of your will
Find me
My love

You'll be the essence of fire
You'll take hold of my desire
You make me bold and inspire
Know me
You'll be the eye of the storm
You'll be the letters of warm
You'll be the dreams that have torn
Know me
My love

Find me inside the calm of the storm
Where lovers decide what might come with the dawn
we sit on the grass wait for machines
and forget all the past

You'll be the wave that will gain
You'll be the the water on stain
You'll be there calling my name
Jamie, Jamie

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.

It's "you'll be there calling my name", not "the call in my name". Makes much more sense too.
