Ramona Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I should wander
Yet I shalln't gander far
Beyond her spells enchant
As red made roses
As red made crimson morns
Black makes my blood char

[Pre-Chorus]
I know I'm ruthless
Ain't the kind to see
I know I'm ruthless, sigh

[Chorus]
Ramona, Ramona, Ramona
Storms with thee
Ramona, ain't it just like I dreamed?
Ramona, Ramona, Ramona
You with me
Ramona, let's not say we're bound
I know I'm ruthless
Ain't the kind to free

[Verse 2]
I've been riding high
I've been riding stone alone
Right out of my mind

[Bridge]
Ooh, the incantations of
The souls she's torched to dust
By hex that had no stage
Of all the evidence
Of all I've ever been
Was some innocence to where I belonged
By the elements, I've been roaming too long

[Pre-Chorus]
I know I'm ruthless
Ain't the kind to plead

[Chorus]
Ramona, Ramona, Ramona
Storms with thee
Ramona, ain't it just like I dreamed?
Ramona, Ramona, Ramona
You with me
Ramona, let's not say we're bound
Ramona, Ramona, Ramona
Deliver thee
Ramona, ain't it like I dreamed?
Ramona, Ramona, Ramona
You with me
Ramona, Ramona, please

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.
