Q&A

want you back Lyrics

i wrote this song when i was 12
it didn't mean then what it means now
i used different words to state my case
which stays the same
i miss your face

i wonder how we got here now
11 years, it's been
since you wore ribbons in your hair
and i met my best friend

i, i want you
i want you back
i, i want you
i want you back

when i gave my heart away too quick
you wrote these words: don't let it hurt
i watched you make the same mistakes
we both learned so little so late

i wonder how we got here now
a thousand miles away
with beat up cars and shitty jobs
but you still seem happy
i hope you're happy

i, i want you
i want you back
i, i want you
i want you back [x2]

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.
