[Verse 1]
Were you named for the river that surrounds
All my biggest mistakes or the way that I made it out
All the muscles in my mouth never smiled or said profound things
Until the day she handed you to me
[Chorus]
Now for all the steps you'll take and all you've overcome
I wanna be the one to put it in a song
Take every single tear for all the world to hear
I wanna be the one to put it in a song
[Verse 2]
Cigarettes are raining hard on the Upper East Side
She brings me a cake, we celebrate, I have arrived
And I know that it's been sang before but you're my human holiday
I put my hands to the table and dare say the love of my life
And your brother with his best friend shares the name of an inebriate
It couldn't bring me down
[Chorus]
Now for everything you lost and all you've overcome
I wanna be the one to put it in a song
Take every single tear for all the world to hear
I wanna be the one to put it in a song
Were you named for the river that surrounds
All my biggest mistakes or the way that I made it out
All the muscles in my mouth never smiled or said profound things
Until the day she handed you to me
[Chorus]
Now for all the steps you'll take and all you've overcome
I wanna be the one to put it in a song
Take every single tear for all the world to hear
I wanna be the one to put it in a song
[Verse 2]
Cigarettes are raining hard on the Upper East Side
She brings me a cake, we celebrate, I have arrived
And I know that it's been sang before but you're my human holiday
I put my hands to the table and dare say the love of my life
And your brother with his best friend shares the name of an inebriate
It couldn't bring me down
[Chorus]
Now for everything you lost and all you've overcome
I wanna be the one to put it in a song
Take every single tear for all the world to hear
I wanna be the one to put it in a song
