O, Lilac Lyrics

Lilac, I wish you were my little lilac
O lilac

I trust you can't remember most so rest your head now
Your head now

Lilac, I feel your last lies come straight from her eyes,
To my eyes

Tonight, should you rise above, I regret love
I regret love

And you have ghost hands on, that can't hold you up
And you have ghost hands on, I can't hold you up

I gotta let you live
I gotta let you
I gotta let you live
I gotta let you

Lilac, I wish you were my little lilac
My lilac

I trust you can't remember most so rest your head now
Your head now

And you have ghost hands on, that can't hold you up
And you have ghost hands on, I can't hold you up
I can't hold you up

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.
