South of You Lyrics

Sailed out of Biscayne Bay
Headed for the island
No map, no plans, no place to be
One broken heart to fix
So many memories
One photograph of you and me

I may be somewhere east of nowhere
Somewhere west of a town
That sits just north of an unknown latitude
I will sail this ship forever
Till I reach peace of mind
Live my life somewhere south of you

I've heard you say a thousand times
I'd never be a sailor
Yeah that's one thing that I may never be
When a pirate makes his mind up
And it don't care where he's going
He'll find a wind and ride out on the sea

I may be somewhere east of nowhere
Somewhere west of a town
That sits just north of an unknown latitude
I will sail this ship forever
Till I reach peace of mind
Live my life somewhere south of you

I will sail my ship forever
Till I reach peace of mind
Live my life somewhere south of 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.
