Sooner Or Later Lyrics

I'm gonna get under your skin
Sooner or later
I'll find the key that lets me in
Sooner or later
Yea 'cause you just can't keep me down
Yea 'cause you just can't keep me down

I'm gonna take my time all right
Sonner or later
You gonna let me treat you right
Sooner or later
Yea 'cause you just can't keep me down
Oh if you'd only give me
Time
Is really all that I need
To push it through
To make you see
I'll make you see
I'm gonna take my time all right
Sooner or later
You gonna let me treat you righ
Yea 'cause you just can't keep me down
Yea 'cause you just can't keep me down

Time
Is really all that I need
To push it through
To make you see
I'll make you see

Sooner or later Repeat

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.

First to write... nice. Anyway, this is a great pick-me-up song, kinda like Jimmy Eat World's "The Middle". Basically, it's about a guy who's been pushed around, and is finally making a stand for himself (WATERBOY!). Props to Fastball.

This guy wants this girl, but she doesn't want him. Sooner or later, though, she's going to realize he's the one for her, and she can't keep him away. He just needs to give it time.

Also, it's on the Brink! soundtrack, and Brink! is awesome.
