If I Knew Lyrics

If I knew I could count on you
I would love you my whole life through
There is nothing that I would not do
If I knew I could count on you

I've been lonely for a long time
I've been looking everywhere
I need someone to believe in
I need someone that will care

And if I see that your love is true
I will gladly put my faith in you
There is nothing I would rather do
If I see that your love is true

I've been searching for a true love
I've been looking high and low
I've got all this love inside me
And it's good, nowhere to go

If I knew I could count on you
I would love you my whole life through
There is nothing that I would not do
If I knew I could count on you

And if I see that your love is true
I will gladly put my faith in you
There is nothing I would rather do
If I see that your love is true

If I knew I could count on you
I would love you my whole life through
There is nothing that I would not do
If I knew I could count on 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.
