All I'll Be Lyrics

I've never been moved by anything
Like the mountains of Colorado
And all that I've ever wanted
Was a home underneath that same sky

I've never seen anything more beautiful
Than you on a cloudy day
When the storm seems to hold off
For you 'cause you want it that way

All I am and all I'll be
Is for you and only you to decide
All you are and all that you need
I'll be right there playing all for you
All for you

I've never been touched by nothing
Like the blues played in Chicago
But if you said you wanted me to stay
I'd give all the blues I know away

All I am and all I'll be
Is for you and only you to decide
All you are and all that you need
I'll be right there playing all for you

All I am and all I'll be
Is for you and only you to decide
All you are and everything you'll ever need
I'll be right there playing all for you
For you
All for you

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

I think this is my favorite Eli song, although I think that of any Eli song I happen to be litening to. "you on a cloudy day" is my favorite part. It is just so beautiful. Sara
