I'll See You in 40 Lyrics

[Intro]
Ooh...
Please don't come around
Please don't come around
Please don't come around
Please don't, please don't

[Verse]
I was hiding too
It's alright (It's alright)
It's alright (It's alright)
If you were 22 forever, would be nice (Would be nice)
Would be nice (Would be nice)
Why you dare to take that way (That way)
I don't understand (I don't understand)
I could name a thousand different reasons you could try (Try)
All your might, I know I'm right

[Chorus]
I could feel the change (Feel the change)
The way you sing your song (The way you sing your song)
I could feel the waves (I could feel the waves)
You send from kingdom's sun (You send from kingdom's sun)

[Outro]
I won't come around
Ooh yeah...
I will find myself
And I still love you
And I still love you
I still 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.

I never understood, or rather took the time to care about lyrics of Joji’s songs until recently. Like really listen to them and think twice like ‘Damn, that’s deep’ (unironically).\n\nMy interpretation of the song’s lyrics is that he’s speaking to a former lover and in the song it’s implied they’re considering ending their own life. He yearns for them and says the following long\n\n“Why do you dare to take that away?”\n“I don’t understand”\n\nNear the end, is an interesting way that the song ends. It’s not necessarily a nice bow on top, but I feel ends BALLADS 1 nicely\n\nI will find a way\nOoh yeah\nI will find myself\nAnd I will love you\nWith my soul\nYou\'re all I\'ve ever wanted\nI know that I love you\nStill driving\nTake my hands in yours, please don\'t go\nI love you\nI love you\nI love you\nI love you\nI will find a way\nI will find a way\n\nThis suggests that though they’ve parted ways, he still very deeply cares for them.
