I'll be the one
That stays 'til the end
And I'll be the one
That needs you again
And I'll be the one that proposes
In a garden of roses

And truly loves you long after our curtain closes

But will you still love me
When nobody wants me around
When I turn eighty-one and forget things
Will you still be proud

'Cause I am the one
That's waited this long
And I am the one
That might get it wrong

And I'll be the one that will love you
The way I'm supposed to, girl
Oh
But will you still love me
When nobody wants me around
Around

When I turn eighty-one and forget things
Will you still be proud
Proud of me and my short list of accomplishments
Say, and me and my lack of new news
Me and my selfishness, oh me and myself
Wish you nothing but a happy new version of you

Because I
I mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm, yeah
I want you to tell me
You find it hard to be yourself
So I can say "It's gonna be alright", yeah
And I want you to love me
The way you love your family
The way you love to show me what it's like

To be happy
