Everything Lyrics

Lately I feel so alone
can't find the joy
You know that Id be with you now
If I had the choice
I know I hurt you when I said goodbye
And I don't know the reason I ever stopped believin
I never needed anyone but you

CHORUS
I was too blind to see
When you belonged to me
You were my everything
Now Id give anything
To feel the love you bring
You were my everything

They say time can mend a broken heart
Can fix you up
But my life will never ever be the same
Without your touch
I know you're still afraid to let me in
And I don't blame you really
I wouldn't let you see me
I took for granted you would always be there

CHORUS

I know I hurt you when I said goodbye
And I don't know the reason I ever stopped believin
I never needed anyone but you

CHORUS

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.

Recently I listened to this song after not hearing it for about 30 years. For reasons that aren't clear to me, the song and the music video have strongly appealed to me and have made me reflect.
