All This Time Lyrics

I saw your hall, I saw your door.
I saw your room, I wanted to see more.
I saw your closet, holding hangers, full of dresses that you never wore.
I saw a picture when you were little. Your hair was yellow and it's not anymore.
But I couldn't help but wanna tell you,
I couldn't help but wanna tell you,
I couldn't help but wanna tell you what a dream you were.

At the party we did not know what we were there for.
Every now and then you'd grab me and you'd pull me off the dance floor
and we'd climb up the stairs
and we'd just stand there cuz I didn't know what to say.
I didn't know what to say.
I didn't know what to say.
I didn't know what to say.
I didn't know what to say.

And I had to leave the next day and my eyes were red and my cheeks were the same way.
And the note that I wrote you is still on your wall
and after all this time you still haven't called.
But I don't mind.
I don't mind.
I don't mind.
Cuz I haven't called either after all this time.

I saw you hall, I saw your door.
I saw your room, I wanted to see more.
I wanted to see more.
I wanted to see more.

I saw your hall, I saw your door.
I saw your room, I wanted to see more.
I saw your closet, holding hangers, full of dresses that you never wore.
I saw a picture when you were little. Your hair was yellow and it's not anymore.
But I couldn't help but wanna tell you, 
I couldn't help but wanna tell you, 
I couldn't help but wanna tell you what a dream you were.

At the party we did not know what we were there for.
Every now and then you'd grab me and you'd pull me off the dance floor
and we'd climb up the stairs 
and we'd just stand there cuz I didn't know what to say.
I didn't know what to say.
I didn't know what to say.
I didn't know what to say.
I didn't know what to say.

And I had to leave the next day and my eyes were red and my cheeks were the same way.
And the note that I wrote you is still on your wall 
and after all this time you still haven't called.
But I don't mind.
I don't mind.
I don't mind.
Cuz I haven't called either after all this time.

I saw you hall, I saw your door.
I saw your room, I wanted to see more.
I wanted to see more.
I wanted to see more.

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.
