Your Old Used to Be Lyrics

Will I ever get used to being your old used to be
I watched you walk away from me so long ago
I didn't know I loved you and I let you go
And just to think that I'm the one who set you free
Will I ever get used to being your old used to be
I've gotten used to people's stares as I walk by
I keep my head bowed low so they can't see me cry
They say there goes a man who lives in a memory
Will I ever get used to being your old used to be
[ steel ]
I've got no one to help me pass these lonely days
When night time comes I just can't keep the blues away
Or if I dream your lovely face is all I see
Will I ever get used to being your old used to be
I've gotten used to...

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.
