Sore Eyes Lyrics

Sometimes the script doesn't read right
The lines get stuck in my stumbling and I'm out of advice
So take it back and I'll do it again
Just one more time 'till I get it right

I pray in time you'll see a sight for your sore eyes
I only wanna be a sight for your sore eyes

Let's try again from the get go
And this time the things that I wished I'd said won't keep me up at night
Now granted I would say them again if half the time I knew I could right

I pray in time you'll see a sight for your sore eyes
I only wanna be a sight for your sore eyes
I pray in time you'll see a sight for your sore eyes
I only want, I wanna be a sight for your sore eyes

I pray in time you'll see a sight for your sore eyes
I only wanna be a sight for your eyes
I pray in time you'll see a sight for you sore eyes
I only want, I wanna be a sight for your sore eyes

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.
