[Verse:]:(Only in "extended version" and in the "vocal mix")Iґve gotta take a little time, a little time to think things overi better read between the lines, In case I need it when Iґm older

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
