I Don't Go Shopping Lyrics

I don't go shopping for love
You're something money can't buy

I dream in colors, and my dreams are only shades of you
So I'm
Never [Repeat: x13]
Blue

I don't go wishing on stars
I just want to be where you are
Too many times it felt so right,
But it was just the night
Now I see the light

I don't care nothing 'bout going out
Now that I found out what it's all about
Hear me shout
I've saved it all up for you
And if you feel like I do
Well we're long over due

I'm never out after dark
You'll always find me, here at home
And if you decide to stay up late
Hey baby don't you hesitate
Oh, I can't hardly wait

I don't care nothing 'bout going out
Now that I found what it's all about
Your gonna hear me shout
I've saved it all up for you
And if you feel like I do
Well we're long over due

I said we're
Long overdue
What about me, what about you
Long overdue
What about me, what about you
Long overdue

I don't go shopping no more
What about me, what about you
We're long overdue

What about me, what about you
We're long overdue

What about me, what about you
We're long overdue

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.
