Joanne Lyrics

Take my hand
Stay Joanne
Heaven's not
Ready for you

Every part
Of my aching heart
Needs you more
Than the angels do

Girl, where do you think you're goin'?
Where do you think you're goin'
Goin', girl?
Girl, where do you think you're goin'?
Where do you think you're goin'
Goin', girl?

If you could
I know that you'd stay
We both know
Things don't work that way

I promised I
Wouldn't say goodbye
So I grin
And my voice gets thin

Girl, where do you think you're goin'?
Where do you think you're goin'?
Goin', girl?
Girl, where do you think you're goin'?
Where do you think you're goin'?
Goin', girl?

Honestly, I know where you're goin'
And baby, you're just movin' on
And I after I'll love you even if I can't
See you anymore
Can't wait to see you soar

Girl, where do you think you're goin'?
Where do you think you're goin'
Goin', girl?
Girl, where do you think you're goin'?
Where do you think you're goin'
Goin', girl?

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.

I read that the song is for Lady Gaga's Aunt Joanne, who died young (and possibly even before Gaga was born, if I remember correctly), but who Gaga is named after (middle name Joanne).

Even though the song is about a specific person and situation, I feel that it can apply to other tragic situations, like a lost love. I can even see it being sung in the third person by someone who puts themselves in the role of Joanne because they are giving up on themselves or running away from something and need a boost in self-worth. It's poignant all these ways.
