Angels At Play Lyrics

took me so long just to get your name
i forget tryin to learn the rules of the game
now you ask do i want you to stay?
dont you know that in my heart there aint no other way
you gotta
you gotta
you gotta
stay dont you go away
you and i angels at play
you are like noone i had ever seen
saw your face on the new yourk times
complemintic on the northern lights
you gotta
you gotta
you gotta
stay dont you go away
you and i angels at play

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.

----Actual Lyrics----

Took me so long just to get your name Like a kid tryin' to learn the rules of the game Now you ask do I want you to stay Don't you know there ain't no other way? you gotta, you gotta, you gotta stay don't you go away, you and I are angels at play.

You are like no one I have ever seen Got more style than a New York night Got more magic then the northern lights you gotta, you gotta, you gotta stay don't you go away you and I are angels at play.

i'm seeing them on the 14th of september at the electric factory...anyone going? they're playing with thursday, the (international) noise conspiracy, coheed and cambria (yuck), and the lawrence arms...or something like that? it starts at 7:30...it's 15 bucks....and 10% of the profit goes to charity.....suicide awareness or something.

One more correction: Don't you know there ain't no other way? should be: Don't you know that in my heart there ain't no other way?
