Tried to figure out what the cause it but couldn't detect it.

Same here, this seems to happen when I request the same artist/song in relatively quick succession.
e.g. I call for Coldplay/Yellow it returns the lyrics as expected.
If I do this a few seconds later, lyrics return empty.
I've not timed this accurately but I found that after about a minute or two I can call the same artist/song and again get lyrics.
Maybe it is some in built throttling to prevent many requests?
Certainly a bit frustrating when wanting to test my code..!

This is also happening to me, and at an interval much longer than a few seconds.

Yeah I have to wait about 1-2 minutes. I've added a 'time check' function to my code which prevents fetching lyrics if less than 2 minutes have passed between the same searches, though there's still some issues..

Same here, and sometimes it loads, and then goes away.

Same here this is frustrating because this is a straightforward lyrics API (which is a valuable thing)

Some lyrics are completely missing. I can select them from the list on lyrics.ovh, but I get back empty lyrics each time. Blinding Lights - The Weeknd for example never returns any lyrics.
