Over My Shoulder Lyrics

I wait by my pillow for your footsteps
Echoing up to my door
Afraid that you`ll think I'll be waiting
I get up and I lock the door
I get up and I lock the door
I'm waiting for summer
But winter keeps on whispering in my ear
I say I don`t love you
But sometimes I wish that you were here

[Chorus]
And I got a feeling our love is over
But I keep on looking over my shoulder

My stereo calls me
But all of the records have been played before
Dreaming of loving you
Waking and I don`t love you anymore

[Chorus]

So many nights together
Now I'm here alone
I wait for you one last time
But I know that we can`t go back

[Chorus]

I wake in the darkness
But the footsteps are in my imagination
My TV's white hissing
Has replaced all my midnight animation
And I got a feeling our love is over
But I keep on looking over my shoulder

I keep on looking over my shoulder,
I got a feeling our love is over
But I keep on looking over my shoulder

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.
