Late September Lyrics

it's late september
i'm walking down that lonely road
i thought i'd only have to walk alone so far
and i remember being told it's over so many times it's over
oh how i wish i could hold on to me
as i lay awake so much i could say
but instead i think
i know i've made mistakes
and don't know how they're made
i count on you to know what i mean when i don't know
it's strange that i feel like i am so much older
than i was the other day
you learn things and move on
it's strange that i feel like there's so much behind me
could someone please remind me that i'm young?
oh please hold
and you seem so far away
the way that i know you would never be the one to show it
and i never really know if you'll be the one to show it
and i'll never really know if you'll be the one for me

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.
