I'll Be

[Verse 1]

The strands in your eyes that color them wonderful

Stop me and steal my breath

And emeralds from mountains thrust towards the sky

Never revealing their depth

[Pre-Chorus]

And tell me that we belong together

Dress it up with the trappings of love

I'll be captivated, I'll hang from your lips

Instead of the gallows of heartache that hang from above

[Chorus]

And I'll be your cryin' shoulder

I'll be love's suicide

I'll be better when I'm older

I'll be the greatest fan of your life

[Verse 2]

And rain falls angry on the tin roof

As we lie awake in my bed

You're my survival, you're my living proof

That my love is alive and not dead

[Pre-Chorus]

Tell me that we belong together

Dress it up with the trappings of love

I'll be captivated, I'll hang from your lips

Instead of the gallows of heartache that hang from above

[Chorus]

And I'll be your cryin' shoulder

I'll be love's suicide

And I'll be better when I'm older

I'll be the greatest fan of your life

[Bridge]

And I've dropped out

I've burned up

I've fought my way back from the dead

Tuned in

Turned on

Remembered the thing that you said

[Chorus]

And I'll be your cryin' shoulder

I'll be love's suicide

And I'll be better when I'm older

I'll be the greatest fan of your life

[Outro]

The greatest fan of your life
