Someone To Fall Back On----
I ll never be
A knight in armor
with a sword in hand,
or a kamikaze fighter;
Don t count on me
To storm the barricades
and take a stand,
or hold my ground;
You ll never see
Any scars or wounds -
I don t walk on coals,
I won t walk on water:
[Chorus]
I am no prince,
I am no saint,
I am not anyones wildest dream,
But i can stand behind
And be someone to fall back on.
Some comedy -
your bruised and beaten down
and i m the one
who s looking for a favor?
Still, honestly,
You don t believe me
But the things I have
Are the things you need?
You look at me
Like I don t make sense,
Like a waste of time,
Like it serves no purpose -
[Chorus 2]
I am no prince
I am no saint
And if that s what you bleieve 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 be
The half of us,
The least of you,
The best of me.
[Chorus 3]
And I will be
I ll be your prince
I ll be your saint,
I will go crashing through fences,
In 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.
