It'll Be Me Lyrics

Well if you see somebody knocking on your door
If you see somebody crawling out across the floor
Baby, it'll be me
And I'll be looking for you

If you see somebody in your living room hall
If you see somebody crawling up a totem pole
Baby, it'll be me
And I'll be looking for you

I'll be searching in the mountains
In the deep blue sea
Well I'll be looking in the fountains
I'll be climbing every tree

If you see something happening on a fishing hook
If you see a funny face in a comic book
Baby, it'll be me
I'll be looking for you

I'll be searching in the mountains
In the deep blue sea
Well I'll be looking in the fountains
I'll be climbing every tree

If you see something happening on a fishing hook
If you see a funny face in a comic book
Baby, it'll be me
I'll be looking for you
I'll be looking for you
I'll be looking for you
I'll be looking for 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.
