# Lyrics and synced lyrics
Source: https://docs.aden.space/docs/help/more/version-lyrics

Write lyrics per version, mark singers, and time each line to the audio so the playing line lights up on the version page and on share pages. Aden can transcribe lyrics from the audio, or keep yours and add the timing.

## What it is [#what-it-is]

Every version of a track has its own lyrics. A line that starts with a time,
like `[01:12] Hold me close tonight`, is synced: while the track plays, that
line lights up, and clicking it jumps the player there. Listeners on a share
link see the same synced lyrics.

## Using it [#using-it]

* **Write them**: open the version's Lyrics tab and type. `@name` marks who
  sings a line.
* **Add the timing for you**: in the version's "..." menu, choose **Sync
  lyrics to audio**. Your words stay as they are; Aden listens to the vocals
  and puts a time in front of each line. Run it again after you change the
  lyrics or the audio.
* **Transcribe from scratch**: **Analyze lyrics from audio** writes new,
  already-timed lyrics from the vocals. It asks first when there are lyrics
  to replace.
* **Fix a time**: edit the `[MM:SS]` at the start of the line, or click the
  waveform while writing to insert the current time.

Both actions are also in the ⌘K palette ("sync lyrics", "transcribe").
