I'll Be

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
 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 hangs from above
 And I'll be your crying shoulder
 I'll be your love's suicide
 I'll be better when I'm older
 I'll be the greatest fan of your life
 ♪
 And if rain falls angry on the tin roof
 As we lie awake in my bed
 And you're my survival
 You're my living proof
 My love is alive and not dead
 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 hangs from above
 And I'll be your crying shoulder
 I'll be your love's suicide
 And I'll be better when I'm older
 I'll be the greatest fan of your life
 Well, I dropped out, I burned up
 I fought my way back from the dead
 I tuned in, I turned on
 Remembered the thing that you, you said
 And I'll be your cryin' shoulder
 I'll be your love's suicide
 And I'll be better when I'm older
 I'll be the greatest fan of your life
 I'll be your cryin' shoulder
 I'll be your love's suicide
 And I'll be better when I'm older
 I'll be the greatest fan of your life
 The greatest fan of your life
