Have All the Songs Been Written? Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Have all the songs been written?
Have all the truth been told?
Has all the gas been siphoned?
Do the banks still carry gold?

[Chorus]
Has every ship gone sailing?
Has every heart gone blue?
Have all the songs been written?
Ohhh I just need one, to get through to you
I just need one more

[Verse 2]
Have all the songs been written?
Have all your needs been met?
Have all these years been worth it?
Or am I the great regret?

[Chorus]
Has every ship gone sailing?
Has every heart gone blue?
Have all the songs been written?
Oh I just need one, to get through to you
Oh I just need one more, to get through to you
I can't take back, what I've done wrong
And I just need one more

When the train returns to the rails
When the ship is back in the harbor
I will make you happy again
I can see a life, I believe it

[Chorus]
I just need one more, to get through to you
I just need one more, to get through to you
I can't take back, what I've done wrong
I just need one more

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.
