Edwin McCain - I'll be



The strands in your eyes,

that color them wonderful 

Stop me, and steal my breath 

Emeralds from mountains,

thrust towards the sky

Never revealing their depth.



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



I'll Be your cryin' shoulder 

I'll Be love suicide 

I'll Be better when I'm older

I'll Be the greatest fan of your life



And rain falls, angry on the tin roof

As we lie awake in my bed 

You're my survival, 

you're my living proof 

My love is alive and not dead



Tell me that we belong together 

Dress it up with the trappings of love 

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

And stand at the gallows of heartache, that hang from above



I'll be your cryin' shoulder

I'll be love suicide

I'll be better when i'm older

I'll be the greatest fan of your life



I've dropped out, burned up, 

and fought my way back from the dead 

Tuned in, turned on, 

Remembered the things that you said



And i'll be, your cryin' shoulder

I'll be love suicide

I'll be better when i'm older

I'll be the greatest fan of your life
