Lyrics
I'll Be The One
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Tired of seeing some play thing acting like a toy
Tired of watching some fool trying to be your boy
And I don't like being the one seeing you in tears
Standing in the shadows staring out at love again
But I'll be the one
I'm the one reminding you that you've got a choice
I'm the one to let you know that I hear your voice
Time and again I catch you smiling from within
But standing empty hearted standing in the wings again
I'll be the one
Now I can't be the one to catch you everytime you fall
I ain't the one to answer everytime you call
But maybe I'm gonna to be the one
One to see you through it all
