I Wish You Would Lyrics

Early in the morning by the break of day
That`s when my baby went away
Come back baby I wish you would
This crying and grieving won`t do me no good
Hugging and a-kissing, late at night
You know pretty baby it feels just right
Come back baby what you`re trying to do?
Turning on me and some other men too
Come back baby give me one more chance
You know I still love you gonna give you romance
Yeah, romance all night long
In my arms, oh yeah
Early in the morning by the break of day
That`s when my baby went away
Come back baby I wish you would
This crying and grieving won`t do me no good
Hey pretty baby I love you so
You know pretty baby it hurts me to see you go
Oh yeah oh yeah oh yeah oh yeah oh yeah oh yeah oh yeah

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.
