Hooray for Love Lyrics

Memories are the finest of flowers
A bridge is all I have to get to you
Fear is what I feed to the cowards
You look like you've had enough

You said nothing is in the telephone wire
You've got nothing to hide
He says torture me, and I'll torture you
If love is forgiveness then I will be forgiven

Hooray for love
Hooray for love
I'm looking up
I'm looking up, but the sky is deceiving

When you're through combining all your powers
You can come and place it in my hands
This may be your finest hour
Can someone teach the baby how to stand?

You said nothing is in the telephone wire
You've got nothing to hide
He says torture me, and I'll torture you
If love is forgiveness then I will be forgiven

Hooray for love
Hooray for love
I'm looking up
I'm looking up, but the sky is deceiving

Hooray for love
Hooray for love
I'm looking up
I'm looking up, but the sky is deceiving

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.
