      Lyrics (--lyric)

      With the --lyric option, the tool will automatically download the LRC format lyrics file corresponding to the song, with the same filename as the song file.

      Cover Image (--cover)

      With the --cover option, the song cover image (PNG format) will be downloaded. You can specify the cover size:
