If You Leave Lyrics

If you leave, dont leave now
Please dont take my heart away
Promise me just one more night
Then we'll go our seperate ways
We always had time on our side
Now it's fading fast
Every second, every move
We've got to, we've gotta make it last
I touch you once, I touch you twice
I wont let go at any price
I need you now like i needed you then
Always said we'd still be friends someday
If you leave i dont cry
I won't waste a single day
But if you leave, no dont look back
I'll be running the other way
Seven years went under the bridge
Time was standing still
Heaven knows what happens now you've gotta
You've gotta say you will

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.
