Echo & the Bunnymen
I Want to Be There (When You Come) [WHYT Radio Session, 1997]
[Verse 1]
I want to be like you
I want to fly, fly, fly
Want you to take me to
All of your sky
[Verse 2]
Why don't you kneel me down
Why don't we try, try, try
'Cause when you come around
That's when I fly
[Chorus]
'Cause I don't want to go under
It's only just begun
I want to be there when you come
I want to be there when you come
[Verse 3]
I want to be like you
I want to laugh and cry
About the things we do
Never ask why
[Chorus]
'Cause I don't want to go under
It's only just begun
I want to be there when you come
I want to be there when you come
[Post-Chorus]
La, la, la, la
La, la, la, la
La, la, la, la
[Verse 4]
I want to be like you
I want to fly, fly, fly
Want you to take me to
All of your sky
[Verse 5]
I want to paint the town
And drink it dry, dry, dry
And when the lights go down
I'll say goodbye
[Chorus]
Through all the rain and the thunder
I'm heading into the sun
I want to be there when you come
I want to be there when you come
I want to be there when you come
I want to be there when you come
[Outro]
La, la, la, la
La, la, la, la
La, la, la, la
