You and I Lyrics

Words they never mean a lot to me
I believe in only what I see
Dreams they never show me how you feel
I can count on only what is real

All the things I've heard before were lies
She was passing through her life with alibis

So before you tell me it's too late for me
I'll believe in you if you can wait

You tell me to trust in all the things you say
How can I be sure you really feel that way?

Time can mean a lot when you've been down
I'll believe in you if you're around
I'll believe in you if you're around
I'll believe in you if you're around

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.

This text looks like a typical rhyme for blues music in the '60s. Pretty damn simple and about love. I'm not a music expert, just a redneck from Texas.
