Heart Away Lyrics

Here's a little something that I brought here for you
It ain't much but it might just do
Fairly serious could hardly say
that I couldn't give my heart away
I couldn't give my heart away
It's never enough to feel and say
Throw my promises away
Several things that I could do
But I couldn't give my heart to you
I couldn't give my heart to you
Smokes on the table the matches are lost
There's room in the back of the bar
Fairly serious could hardly say
that I couldn't give my heart away
I couldn't give my heart away
Aw, it's not really serious but I should prove
That I don't mean what I might not do
Not that you wanted it anyway
but I couldn't give my heart away
I couldn't give my heart away...

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 song should have be mixed into a single. I think it's about making a deliberate choice to live without love.
