(Love) Compared with You Lyrics

I been trying to write this line but the years've gone by in no time
And you know that it's not easy for a boy in love
But I had to find a clue and it could only come from you
Like a waterfall you tingle me with your love.

And you know that since you loved me, I have everything
And you know that since you loved me, it's been easy.

All the things that I've been through don't mean a thing compared with you
You can give me life forever in a moment
You carry me like a child and you're a goddess when I'm wild
When I'm desperate in black, you are golden.

And I confess that since you loved me, I have everything
I confess that since you loved me, it's been easy.

I been trying to write this line but the years've gone by in no time
And you know that it's not easy for a boy in love
But I had to find a clue and it could only come from you
Like a waterfall you tingle me with your love.

And you know that since you loved me, I have everything
And you know that since you loved me, it's been easy.

I love you, I love you
I love you, I love you
I love you, I love you

Here Comes the Sun (The Beatles cover)

I been trying to write this line but the years've gone by in no time
And you know that it's not easy for a boy in love
But I had to find a clue and it could only come from you
Like a waterfall you tingle me with your love.

And you know that since you loved me, I have everything
And you know that since you loved me, it's been easy.

All the things that I've been through don't mean a thing compared with you
You can give me life forever in a moment
You carry me like a child and you're a goddess when I'm wild
When I'm desperate in black, you are golden.

And I confess that since you loved me, I have everything
I confess that since you loved me, it's been easy.

I been trying to write this line but the years've gone by in no time
And you know that it's not easy for a boy in love
But I had to find a clue and it could only come from you
Like a waterfall you tingle me with your love.

And you know that since you loved me, I have everything
And you know that since you loved me, it's been easy.

I love you, I love you
I love you, I love you
I love you, I love you

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.
