Sing Me Away Lyrics

Sometimes I sit and I dream on for hours
Sometimes my hours they turn into days
I dream of a girl I once knew as a schoolboy
She was the one who could sing me away

But she is a long ways away
And I want to be with her today
I'll think of a way I can get back
Oh gonna know the way back home

Sing me away
Sing me away
Oh oh oh oh
Sing me away
Sing me away

What do you see when you look in the mirror
I see a face from the past it's so clear
What do you hear when I sing you forever
A song that will last for a million years, (oh oh oh oh)

But I am a long ways away
I want to be with you today
I’ll think of a way I can get back
Oh gonna know the way back home

Sing me away
Sing me away, oh oh oh oh
Sing me away
Sing me away, oh

Sing me away
Sing me away oh oh
Sing me away
Sing me away, oh I’m gonna know the way back home
Sing me away
Sing me away, Sing me away, yeah
Sing me away
Sing me away, Sing me away, (ay)

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.

This is probably my favorite Night Ranger song. The message I'm getting is that this guy has fallen in love with this girl and like with most high school relationships got really attached to her. When he is alone he can still remember and believe that she will always be there and needs to secure that memory in a song, probably like one he used to sing to her or vise versa. So anytime he needs inspiration or happiness he can sing that song and remember his sweetheart.
