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
And I'll be your crying shoulder I'll be loves suicide I'll be better when I'm older I'll be the greatest fan of your life
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 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 Instead of the gallows of heartache, that hang from above
And I'll be your crying shoulder I'll be loves suicide I'll be better when I'm older I'll be the greatest fan of your life
And I've dropped out, burned up, fought my way back from the dead Tuned in, turned on, remembered the thing that you said
And I'll be your crying shoulder I'll be loves suicide I'll be better when I'm older I'll be the greatest fan of your life
