If Baby's Gone Lyrics

Baby don't give a damn about me
Why would she ever need to
Cause she's got everything without me
I'm just a rock in her shoe

But then she draws me near to whisper in her ear
I say the things that baby likes to hear

Baby won't put her arms around me
I think she's embarrassed to say
That she's been down ever since she found me
I'm just a lull in her day

But there's nothing she could do that would break my heart in two
Cause baby's got a way of keeping you
And there's nothing she could say
That would push my love away
If baby's gone then I don't wanna stay

Please don't make me live without her
I've lived a life where nothings real and nothing matters
Please you can make it easy on me

But then she draws me near to whisper in her ear
I say the things that baby likes to hear
And there's nothing she could say that would push my love away
If baby's gone then I don't wanna stay

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.
