Tailwind Lyrics

I watched you grow older
I watched you struggle to find your own feet and stand
I measured your footsteps, starts, and stutters as you learned to be your own man
Now I know you'll be happy
And I know that you're scared
But I know you'll be ready
When you come back I'll be here
I know she beckons this world like a lover with cities of promise and hope
But be careful boy they say she's a monster whose lies swallow grown men whole
Now I know that you're ready
'Cause I know you'll be strong
And I know you'll be happy
When you come back I'll be gone
Well I know that you're ready
And I know that you're strong
And I know that you're happy
When you come back I'll be gone

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.
