Hunting down official lyrics for 'Salvatore' can be surprisingly straightforward if you know where to look, and I love that little treasure-hunt vibe. Start with the most obvious: the album materials. The physical CD or vinyl of '
Honeymoon' often includes printed liner notes and lyrics — grabbing a secondhand copy or a deluxe edition can give you the official text exactly as released. If you prefer digital, iTunes/Apple Music sometimes includes a digital booklet with lyrics when you buy the album, and some services like Apple Music and Amazon Music show artist-provided lyrics alongside tracks.
Beyond the album itself, check the artist's official channels. Official YouTube or VEVO uploads sometimes include lyric videos or descriptions with verified lyrics. The record label’s page for the release can also post the official wording, and licensed lyric providers such as LyricFind or Musixmatch are reliable places that partner with publishers to display authorized text. I also browse the PRO databases (ASCAP, BMI, PRS) to confirm songwriting credits — they won’t always show full lyrics but are great for confirming official authorship and publisher info.
Genius is super handy for annotations and fan discussion, but treat it as community-sourced unless you see a clear citation to an official booklet or label post. If you need to reprint or use the lyrics publicly, contact the publisher or label for permission — the album credits list who to approach. Personally, I like comparing the printed lyric to live performances: Lana sometimes ad-libs in concerts, which is a nice reminder that official and live versions can differ, and that’s part of the charm.
