I'll be your crying shoulder,
I'll be love suicide,
I'll be better when I'm older,
I'll be the greatest man of you life....
(It sounds like a ballad) Thanks Gang!

"I'll Be" by Edwin McCain
The strands in your eyes that color them wonderful
Stop me and steal my breath
And 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's 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
Instead of the gallows of heartache that hang from above
I'll be your cryin' shoulder
I'll be love's suicide
I'll be better when I'm older
I'll be the greatest fan of your life
And I've dropped out, I've burned up
I fought my way back from the dead
Tuned in, turned on
Remembered the things that you said
I'll be your cryin' shoulder
I'll be love's suicide
I'll be better when I'm older
I'll be the greatest fan of your
I'll be your cryin' shoulder
I'll be love's suicide
I'll be better when I'm older
I'll be the greatest fan of your life
The greatest fan of your whole life

Hey everyone. It's snowing again (as if anything else ever happens around here anymore...). *sighs*
I had the day off today. All I did was study, basically. And go out to breakfast. But that was for like an hour. Oh well. English and French midyears tomorrow. Both should be fairly easy. I can't believe how insane the physics one yesterday was. Ugh.
Eww, I have to go to voice in 2 hours. I haven't had any vocal warm-ups since SATURDAY! And that was before I totally ruined my voice through oversinging during the actual competition. This should be interesting, lol.
I'm wicked tired. I think I'll lie down for an hour or so and try to sleep. Later, foolios.

It is "I'll Be" by Edwin McCain. I Love that song too. It was the them to one of my best friend's and my realationship in college. It first appeared on "Misguided Roses" in 1997, but was released again in an acoustic version on the following album "Messenger" in 1999.
If you want to hear a REALLY GOOD cover of the song EJ did performed it on the very first season of "American Idol". Some people say it is better than Edwin's originol. It is definatly more emotional, but I'll leave it up to you to decide which you like the best. you can find it on the Soundtrack to the 1st season of "Americal Idol".
The lyrics are as follows (enjoy!):
"I'll Be"
The strands in your eyes that color them wonderful
Stop me and steal my breath.
And emeralds from mountains thrust toward 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.
[Chorus:]
I'll be your crying shoulder,
I'll be love's 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 -- 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
[Chorus]
And I've dropped out, I've burned up, I've fought my way back from the dead.
I've tuned in, turned on, remembered the things that you said
[Chorus:]
I'll be your crying shoulder,
I'll be love's suicide
I'll be better when I'm older,
I'll be the greatest fan of your...
I'll be your crying shoulder,
I'll be love's suicide
I'll be better when I'm older,
I'll be the greatest fan of your life.
The greatest fan of your life.
...greatest fan of your life.
