For You Blue Lyrics

Because you're sweet and lovely, girl I love you
Because you're sweet and lovely, girl it's true
I love you more than ever girl I do
I want you in the morning girl I love you
I want you at the moment I feel blue
I'm living for every moment girl for you
I've loved you from the moment I saw you
You looked at me that's all you had to
I feel it now I hope you feel it too
Because you're sweet and lovely, girl I love you
Because you're sweet and lovely, girl it's true
I love you more than ever girl I do
I really love 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.

This is an amazing song. George Harrison wrote great songs.

Awesome song. George could pack more punch in a love song than Lennon or McCartney (and both those guys could write love songs). This is simple, straightforward and worth every note you hear.

I swear, George's voice sounds just like a mix between Paul's & John's. Am I the only one to think this?

I think he kinda does, but i love all of their voices probably georges the best though.

I used to think a lot of George's songs were John's songs

Harrison: It’s a simple 12-bar song following all the normal 12-bar principles, except that it’s happy-go-lucky!

For You Blue and many of harrison's songs show that a song doesnt need complex lyrics to rock.
