A Heart Like Mine Lyrics

she stood at the sea in the photograph
i saw the ship approach to take her love away
oh please if they should ask you
tell them you knew a heart like mine
yes a heart like mine
she is the one in the photograph
so i cross the sea to find the love i lost
oh please if they should ask you
tell them you knew a heart like mine
and if they should ask me
i'll tell them I knew a heart like yours
and a heart like mine

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.

World Was 2... watching the ship approach to take her love away to war... "oh please if they should ask you ..." (as they're about to kill you) "tell them you know a heart like mine"

Its a brilliant song by the ebst band on the planet.

Its a story that conjures up images of stormy nights, captures and big ships and lost love.

Just brilliant. I agree about the drinking. It makes me wan to put on a false beard, crack open a bottle of rum and talk about pirates.
