Jason Robert Brown - Someone To Fall Back On Lyrics
I'll never beA knight in armorWith a sword in hand,Or a Kamikaze fighter;Don't count on meTo storm the barricadesAnd take a stand,Or hold my ground;You'll never seeAny scars or wounds-I don't walk on coals,I won't walk on water:I am no prince,I am no saint,I am not anyone's wildest dream,But I can stand behindAnd be someone to fall back on.Some comedy -You're bruised and beaten downAnd I'm the oneWho's looking for a favor.Still, honestly,You don't believe meBut the things I haveAre the things you need.You look at meLike I don't make sense,Like a waste of time,Like it serves no purpose -I am no prince,I am no saint,And if that's what you believe you need,You're wrong - you don't need much,You need someone to fall back on...And I'll be that:I'll take your side.If I'm the only one,I'm used to that.I've been alone,I'd rather beThe half of us,The least of you,The best of me.And I will beI'll Your prince,I'll be your saint,I will go crashing through fencesIn your name. I will, I swear -I'll be someone to fall back on!I'll be the one who waits,And for as long as you'll let me,I will be the one you need.I'll be someone to fall back on:Your prince,Your saint,The one you believe you needI'll be - I'll beSomeone to fall back on.
