Third Stone from the Sun / If You Love Me Like You Say Lyrics

If you love me like you say
Why you treat me like you do?
If you love me like you say, baby
Why you treat me like you do?
Well I ain't no fool
I'm cool, I know the rule

Said you'd never run around
Said you'd never stay out late
Said you'd never run around, baby
Said you'd never stay out late
Let me tell you pretty baby
Oh I've got to set you straight
Yeah, yeah

Ooh, said you'd never run around
Said you'd never stay out late
Said you'd never run around, run around, baby
Said you'd never stay out late, yeah
Let me tell you pretty baby
Oh well I'm gonna set you straight, yeah

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.
