Time Stood Still Lyrics

Leave if you want to
Jump to the other side
I never said this was a logical affair
But I saw the future
Life through a coloured lens
It looked so bright

'Cause I've been treading water for too long
Drifting ever closer to the stone

She's the only person
That I've ever known
Who wore her heart outside and it was a beautiful thing
Now I carry her picture
In a frame inside my mind
Inside my mind

'Cause I've been treading water for too long
Drifting ever closer to the stone

(Time stood still)
(Time stood)
(Time stood still)

Working for the weekend
What am I missing?
Holly decided to leave
Time stood still
Time stood still (hey)
Humming on a bassline
Back on the shoreline
Watching the tide come in
Time stood still
Time stood still (hey)
Working for the weekend
What am I missing?
Holly decided to leave
Time stood still
Time stood still (hey)
Humming on a bassline
Back on the shoreline
Watching the tide come in
Time stood still
Time stood still

Inside my mind

'Cause I've been treading water for too long
Drifting ever closer to the stone

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.
