Don't Talk Much Lyrics

I don't talk much
cause when I do I lie
I don't listen well
I'm not the listening kind of guy

But when I'm deep in your arms
I feel I'm full of fire

I don't see too good
I used to but now I'm blind
I've lived in poverty
I've acted my age and now I slide

Get up my life has gone and walked out on me
Get up my life has gone and died
Get up my life has gone and walked out on me
Get up my life has gone and lied

But when I'm deep in your arms
I feel I'm full of fire
and when I say I love you, baby I really do
when I say I want (need) you, then baby I want you

Get up my wife has gone and walked out on me
Get up my wife has gone and died
Get up my wife has gone and walked out on me
Get up my wife has gone and lied

But when I'm deep in your arms
I feel I'm full of fire
and when I say I want you, baby I really do
when I say I need you, then baby I need you
when I say I love you, baby I want you
when I say I need you, then baby I need you

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.
