Help!, what's the name and artist?

[Anaboo]

In Days of our lives this is Belle and Shawn's song. It goes something like "and i'll be better when I'm older..."

[logan01]

Perhaps "I'll Be" by the Goo Goo Dolls?

The strands in your eyes
That color them wonderful
Stop me and steal my breath
Emeralds from mountains
Thrust towards the sky
Never revealing their depth

Tell me that we belong together
Dress it up with the trappings of love
I'll be captivated,
I'll hang from your lips
Instead of the gallows
Of heartache that hang from above

I'll be your cryin' shoulder
I'll be love suicide
I'll be better when I'm older
I'll be the greatest fan of your life

Rain falls angry on the tin roof
As we lie awake in my bed
You're my survival
You're my living proof
My love is alive and not dead

Tell me that we belong together
Dress it up with the trappings of love
I'll be captivated
I'll hang from your lips
Instead of the gallows
Of heartache that hang from above

I'll be your cryin' shoulder
I'll be love suicide
I'll be better when I'm older
I'll be the greatest fan of your life

I've dropped out
Burned up
Fought my way back from the dead
Tuned in
Turned on
Remembered the things you said

I'll be your cryin' shoulder
I'll be love suicide
I'll be better when I'm older
I'll be the greatest fan of your life

I'll be your cryin' shoulder
I'll be love suicide
I'll be better when I'm older
I'll be the greatest fan of you life

I have this song, but the file I have says it's Edwin McCain. Is this who actually WROTE the song, or is it just mis-labeled??

[logan01]

He also sings the song. He may have written it as well. He's listed as a singer/songwriter in wikipedia. Glad you had that; I never saw any reference to him in my quick & dirty search.

It's Edwin McCain, not Goo Goo Dolls. Your file isn't mislabled.
