It Would Be You Lyrics

It's hard describing a heartacheAll because it's a one of a kind of thing
A serious injuryAnd a whole lot of endless painIf it was a storm
I'd compare to a hurricaneOh it's even got a nameIf it was a drink
It would be a strong oneIf it was a sad songIt would be a long one
If it was a colorIt would be a deep deep blue
But if we're talking about a heartacheIt would be youIf it was a full moon
It would be a total eclipseIf it was a tidal waveIt would sink a thousand ships
If it was a blizzardIt would be a record breaking coldIf it was a lie
It would be the biggest story you've ever toldIf it was a drink
It would be a strong oneIf it was a sad songIt would be a long one
If it was a colorIt would be a deep deep blue
But if we're talking about a heartacheIt would be youIf it was a color
It would be a deep deep blueBut if we're talking about a heartache
It would be you

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.

It's hard describing a heartache Oh, because it's a one of a kind thing Serious injury and a whole lot of endless pain. If it was a storm I'd comapare it to a hurricane, Oh it's even got a name

Chorus If it was a drink, it would be a strong one. If it was a sad song, it would be a long one. If it was a colour it would be a deep deep blue. But if we're talking 'bout a heartache, it would be you.

If it was a full moon, it would be a total eclipse. If it was a tidal wave, it would sink a thousand ships. If it was a blizzard, it would be a record breaking cold. If it was a lie, it would be the biggest story you've ever told

(Chorus) x 2

Here's to you Sheryl. Ik ben droevig het heeft niet opgelost.

This is song is a good example of why Gary Allan is one of the most underrated country artists on the new millennium.
