I've Got Wings, Irene Lyrics

Why are we growing apart?
We'll never move on if we stay where we are
Why aren't you catching my eye?
You know that I've tried but I can change my mind

'cause I've got wings, Irene
That's why I'm gonna have to leave
Maybe that's why you're leaving me
'cause I've got wings, Irene

Why won't you laugh at my jokes?
I know they're not funny
I'm just trying to help us
Why do you think that I'm strange?
I always surprise you
You never understand me

'cause I've got wings, Irene
That's why I'm gonna have to leave
Maybe that's why you're leaving me
'cause I've got wings, Irene

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.
