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 in the trappings of love  i'll be captivated, i'll hang from your lips  instead of the gallows of heartache that hang from above  choru
I've dropped out, burned up, fought my way back from the dead  tuned in, turned on, remembered the thing you said  chorus
