i'm not sure whether i'm being over sensitive or it's my unbalanced hormones...but all of sudden tears fall down my face as i listen to "i'll be" by edwin mccain...i luv listening 2 music especially when i'm doing works dat dun need me to pay dat much attention...usually i'll just listen, and the lyrics would be very blur n i`ll only get the beat...but just now, dis one song really gets me...i'm not sure why but among hundreds of songs in my playlist, it's the only song dat made me stuck to the lyrics...i suddenly stop doing my work, n all the lyrics seem to be very clear...which really touched me...it touched me soo badly dat i even cried.was indeed a beautiful song, n written straight from the heart.

I'll be
Edwin Mccain

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

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
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

I've dropped out, burned up, fought my way back from the dead
Tuned in, turned on, remembered the things you said

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




p/s: i dun have the brain energy to analyse the deeper meaning of dis lyrics, since it includes the word 'suicide'. but all i can say is, goin thru dis lyrics made me realized dat it holds a lot of meaning to me.remind me of the people whom i miss sooo much... ='(

    Hey, you are exactly right about the lyrics of Edwin's songs. If you like THAT one, there is another that you will just die over. It's called "Couldn't Love You More." Most people know him for his 3 most famous songs:
    1. Solitude
    2. Could Not Ask For More
    3. I'll Be
    But if you listen to "Couldn't Love You More," you will love it. I'll post the lyrics to it here for you:

    Couldn't Love You More
    After the big parade, when all the limelight fades
    I'll be the one to kiss your eyes
    The roar fades in the air like hope from a lover's prayer
    The light from my heart begins to rise

    [Chorus:]
    And they said I couldn't love you and that it would never last
    He's just a crazy boy just look at his past
    And they said I couldn't love you but that was just a lie
    I couldn't love you more if I tried

    I was the lucky one, the one having all the fun
    Running into the sun, the party never ends
    You waited there for me, so loving and patiently
    Shutting out sad words from your friends

    [Chorus]

    I don't own any armor and I might not be that brave
    You might be the one I rescue, but I'll be the one you save

    [Chorus]
