Sam Lyrics

Sam
I'd love to hear
Someday some woman'll spill love in your ear
Sam
You know you'd make some woman proud
Struttin' down on main street, Saturday
Sam
You know it would be alright
To bring joy, a little life
To your night
Sam
Please don't turn away
I'll stick by, help you out
Keep you company
Sam
Won't you listen to me?
Life's short
It slips on by
And this could help it pass
Sam
I'd love to see
Someday some voice'll say
Sam's my old man
Sam
If you had a little girl
Maybe you can name her after me

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.

A woman sees the greatness in a certain man, and she is genuinely in love with him and earnestly wants him to know and respond. That can be heard in the way the lyrics are sung. She not only sees how she can bring light into his life, but sees that he could do the same for her, if he loves her too. But in these lyrics she doesn’t seem to know whether he loves her, or if he takes what she is saying seriously. It is rather that she is rehearsing in her mind what she could say to him when the opportunity arrives. It’s wisdom to understand that “Life’s short / It slips on by”, and to give all you have to love and be loved. The song gives voice to those of us who find themselves in it, either the one singing, or the one being addressed.
