If I Were Someone Lyrics

Boy if I were someone
I would laugh at a cloudy sky
I would watch all my dreams go by and by
and boy if I were someone
all my friends would laugh and say
do you remember yesterday and all those things
if I were someone I would run from the shell I'm in
I would start a life and begin
to feel that like that someone
to live like that someone
to be like that someone
who finds that certain someone to love

I wish I was someone

But here now I'm just sitting
and all the thoughts that I have written
with all my dreams will be just hidden
in my mind
and when I want to make up
I will tell my mind to wake up
all the thoughts and dreams I left so far behind
if I were someone I would run from the shell I'm in
I would start a life and begin
to feel that like that someone
to live like that someone
to be like that someone
who finds that certain someone to love

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.
