Song 4 U Lyrics

I know I said it didn't matter
Don't mean nothing
But it's gotta mean something that
I wrote this song for you
I wish I would've told you better
Called you up or told you to your face
But writing songs is what I do

And if I was fine,
I wouldn't be up so late at night
If I was cool,
I wouldn't be here thinking of you
If I could lose my foolish pride,
I would be there by your side

I don't remember what we said
Or who said what
But I know that
I'm tired of missing you

Thought I'd play a little while
'Cause it makes me feel better
Didn't know what else to do

But if I was fine,
I wouldn't be up so late at night
If I was cool,
I wouldn't be here thinking of you
If I could say what's on my mind
I would be there by your side

And if I was fine,
I wouldn't be up so late at night
If I was cool,
I wouldn't be playing til my fingers turn blue
If I could say what's on my mind
I would be there by your side

I would be there by your side
I would be there by your side
Oh, I wanna be there
Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo

I know I said it didn't matter 
Don't mean nothing 
But it's gotta mean something that 
I wrote this song for you 
I wish I would've told you better 
Called you up or told you to your face 
But writing songs is what I do

And if I was fine, 
I wouldn't be up so late at night 
If I was cool, 
I wouldn't be here thinking of you 
If I could lose my foolish pride, 
I would be there by your side

I don't remember what we said 
Or who said what 
But I know that 
I'm tired of missing you

Thought I'd play a little while 
'Cause it makes me feel better 
Didn't know what else to do

But if I was fine, 
I wouldn't be up so late at night 
If I was cool, 
I wouldn't be here thinking of you 
If I could say what's on my mind 
I would be there by your side

And if I was fine, 
I wouldn't be up so late at night 
If I was cool, 
I wouldn't be playing til my fingers turn blue 
If I could say what's on my mind 
I would be there by your side

I would be there by your side 
I would be there by your side 
Oh, I wanna be there 
Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo

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.
