I Wanna Be The One

歌詞

Were you named for the river that surrounds All my biggest mistakes? Or the way that I made it out? All the muscles in my mouth Never smiled or said profound things Until the day she handed you to me, now For all the steps you'll take And all you'll overcome I wanna be the one to put it in a song Take every single tear For all the world to hear I wanna be the one to put it in a song Cigarettes are raining hard On the upper east side She brings me a cake, we celebrate I have arrived And I know that it's been sang before But you're my human holiday I put my hands to the table and dare to say "The love of my life" And your brother with his best friend Share the name of an inebriate That couldn't bring me down For everything you've lost And all you've overcome I wanna be the one to put it in a song Take every single tear For all the world to hear I wanna be the one to put it in a song And make it last forever Clever comes in truth When the truth begets the past It sends a call up to the moon And the moon can see the beauty that surrounds Your heart as it pounds It starts the beat, inspiring me Until I make a sound I wanna be the one I wanna be the one I wanna be the one For everything you've lost And all you've overcome I wanna be the one to put it in a song Take every single tear For all the world to hear I wanna be the one to put it in a song
