If I Were Lyrics

Just tell me, tell me how to keep this
And I’ll be alright
Just tell me, tell me what’s the secret
And I’ll hold it tight
Because I don’t want to spend another moment without you again
Just tell me, tell me how to keep this so it never ends

If I were God, just for a day
I would be guilty of letting the whole world slip away
I wouldn’t change, no, I wouldn’t change a thing
I'd leave the mistakes
I'll take the blame
And I'll use the chance to keep you just the same
If I were, if I were God just for a day

Don't tell me, tell me how it changes
It's you I can't replace
Don't tell me, tell me that we're hopeless
I can learn from my mistakes
Because I don't want to spend another moment without you again

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.

I think this song is about someone who loves somebody so much that if they were given the world and had a chance to make it better, they wouldn't for fear of changing the person they love.
