I'll Back You Up Songtext
von Dave Matthews

Gonna do a quiet, this is a quiet song
This is one of the first songs that we ever played
Together in this band, that is

I remember thinking
I′ll go on forever only knowing
I'll see you again
But I know
The touch of you is hard to remember
But like that touch I′ve known no other
And for sure we have danced
In the risk of each other
Would you like to dance
Around the world with me?

I'll be falling all about my own thing
And I know you're the heaviest weight
When you′re not here, that′s hung
Around my head


And your lips burn wild
Thrown from the face of a child
And in your eyes
The seeing of the greatest view, hey
Do what you will, always
Walk where you like your steps
Do as you please, I'll back you up

I remember thinking
Sometimes we walk
Sometimes we run away
But I know
No matter how fast we are running
Somehow we keep
Somehow we keep up with each other

I′ll be falling all about my own thing
And I know you're the heaviest weight
When you′re not here, that's hung
Around my head

And your lips burn wild
Thrown from the face of a child
And in your eyes
The seeing of the greatest view, hey
Do what you will, always
Walk where you like your steps
Do as you please, I′ll back you up


I'll be falling all about my own thing
And I know you're the heaviest weight
When you′re not here, that′s hung
Around my head

And your lips burn wild
Thrown from the face of a child
And in your eyes
The seeing of the greatest view, hey
Do what you will, always
Walk where you like your steps
Do as you please, I'll back you up
