I Would

I was quite the non-believer so I knew you were
Never meant to be all mine and no one else's
You'd already sussed it out and so you knew we weren't
Ever in control
I just never thought that I could be so helpless

But you know I would
Honey yeah, you know I would
For you, you know I would

Young philosophers and poets they will charm your day
And warm your nights
But they won't save your life

Like you know I would
Yeah, you know I would
They won't let you be in ways you know I would

All the others went and bought their cars
And built their houses
But I think we make far better dancers
And they pay no mind to their interjections
And careless questions
Still you always give such thoughtful answers

Like you know I would
Yeah, you know I would
They don't unusually see the things you know I would

And you know I would
Well, you know I would
I'll take good with the worst just like you know I would

Sticks and stones will break my bones
But your words simply destroy me
But I'll have to just rebuild myself

Like you know I would
Yeah, you know I would
Like you know I would
Yeah, you know I would
They won't do the things for you I
