Ten Million Years Lyrics

it's such a simple thing.
i never feel this way.
i have a nightmare i have dreams of you gone.
there is something in you i want today.
so hide the bones away beneath the yellow lines.
you're scared of what you lose or what you might gain this time.
i love you more that i should.
i would wrap my heart in bands of rosewood.
i love you more than i should.
i would stay beside you here ten million years.
you see yourself in the mirror.
you see yourself at night.
you see yourself in the gutter, baby you see yourself like a star shining bright.
i love you more than i should.
i would stay beside you here ten million years.
every minute every hour every second you take me over.
every night every day
i wait
i take
i know
i take but i love you more than i should.
i would stay inside you here ten million years.

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.
