The Park Lyrics

I remember sitting in the sandbox
And I realized it was how life's supposed to be
when I look back and see
So beautiful to me, so beautiful
Holding hands and painting pictures
Playgrounds and friends were the only necessities
when I look back and see
So beautiful to me, so beautiful
It's time to start being kids again
Where hopes are strong, where eyes are bright
To erase the prejudice, to no walls put up inside of life
I don't see why it's so hard to get along these days
It didn't seem that hard when we were kids
I wanna be a kid again, I want to play in the park
when I look back and see
So beautiful to me, so beautiful

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.
