Lonesome Valley Lyrics

It's hard to get you out of my mind
Hard to get you out of my heart
I can't remember when I had happiness last
Since you've been gone
Since you've been gone

And I prayed for salvation
I prayed for some sort of mercy
But all I ever get instead is shame shame shame
Since you've been gone
Since you've been gone
Has changed everything

I walk this lonesome valley for you
Without no end in sight

All love bears false witness
All love done was let me down
I wish someone said things could get this bad
Since you've been gone
Since you've been gone
Has changed everything

I walk this lonesome valley for you
Without no end in sight

I walk this lonesome valley for you
Without no end in sight

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.
