About You Lyrics

I counted down
Just like you did before you said
It's too short how long I said
Is too short
Who's to blame

I contemplate if it's true
I'm born to remain star-crossed seems
He couldn't be respectable
Discreet

And if I found
What she said was true
What she said about you
What she said trust you
I should have known
When you said that you'd choose me

All that I want
Is to see some truth reflected
And to learn somehow
And to be strong somehow
In the state of mind
I'm in

And if I found
What she said was true
What she said about you
What she said trust you
I should have known
When you said that you'd choose me

Seperate stay strong
Seperate be bold
Seperate be brave
Seperate you'll grow
Seperate be brave
Seperate stay

And if I found
What she said was true
What she said about you
What she said trust you
I should have known
When you said that you'd choose me

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.
