You're the Reason Lyrics

(Walking the floor feeling so blue losing sleep over you)
I lay here at night toss and I turn longing you so how my heart yearns
Honey you're the reason I don't sleep at night
Just walking the floor feeling so blue smoke cigarettes drink coffee too
Honey you're the reason I don't sleep at night
I'm betting you're not losing sleep over me
But if I'm wrong don't fail to call come over and keep me company
Sometimes I go for a walk take a look at the moon
Strum my guitar to some old lonesome tune
Honey you're the reason I can't sleep at night
(Walking the floor feeling so blue smoke cigarettes drink coffee too
Strum my guitar look at the moon losing sleep over you)
Like a bright shootin' star I travel apart tryin' to forget but I haven't yet
In this old world I wandered for a while
From the cold arctic seas to the tropical breeze
Down to old Mexico there's no place I don't know
Baby you're the reason I don't sleep at night
I'm betting you're not losing

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.
