The Man Who Had Everything Lyrics

I've thought I needed things that I could by with gold
I scorn the treasure of her love my arms could hold
A love that made me richer than a king yes I'm the man who had everything
I had a dream that I could live for a heart that I could claim
Yes I'm the man who had everything
I had a love worth more than diamonds the best that life could bring
Yes I'm the man who had everything

Now I drive a fancy car that's all my own each night I dine on wine and caviar alone
But since I lost her love through tears I see yes I'm the man who had everything
I had a dream that I could live for...
Yes I'm the man who had everything yes I'm the man who had everything

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.
