Hideaway Lyrics

When I retire from all those things that make me lose my mind
I go inside myself to see what beauty I can find.
I Hideaway, for just a day

And all those things that turn around me seem so far away
the brightest star on my horizon fell the other day
I'll Hideaway for just a day

I lie awake and wonder if this feeling that I'm under will not last
with all the good times taken I awaken in the river of the past
Hideaway

Don't search for cold reality in everything you do, for stepping past
the looking glass shows highways painted blue.
I'll Hideaway for just a day.

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.
