Only Red Lyrics

If my thoughts were green
Would you know what I mean
If I said to you
My mind is turning blue

I always said we lived in dreams
But now I know
You never heard a word I said

I used to see a pure white surface
On your soul
But now I know it's only red
Now I know
If my heart was gray
Would you turn away
Could I get it back
If my love was black

I always thought I fooled myself
But now I know
You never heard a word I said

I used to see a heart of gold
Deep in your eyes
But now I know it's only red
Now I know
If my thoughts were green
Would you know what I mean
If I said to you
My mind is turning blue

I always said we lived in dreams
But now I know
You never heard a word I said

I used to see a pure white surface
On your soul
But now I know it's only red
Now I know

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.
