On Common Ground Lyrics

Getting down the bounds
Getting down the bounds so free
Travel light, two of us
Share the price of the gasoline

Checking out the places
Where they say we can move mountains
In a hot white Chevrolet
Got away from here

Let it sleep, let it lie
Can’t stay wounded
Let it sleep, let it lie
Till we stand on common ground

Dream in open night
Technicolor clarity
We saw the darker side
We saw the sun through shadows over me

Let it go, let it go

Let it sleep, let it lie
Cause I can't stay wounded
Let it sleep, let it lie
Till we stand on common ground

Let it sleep, let it lie
Can't stay wounded and stand my ground
Let it sleep, let it lie
Till we stand on common ground

Only one way to get there...

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.
