Because of Me Lyrics

I just want to be the universe
Or at least as far as you're concerned
Everything before me just a blur, just a blur

I just want to be your wanderlust
All the molecules that make you up
'Cause to me there's nothing else but us, else but us

I don't want you to smile or shed a tear
Ever hear you say love unless it's in my ear
I don't want you to dance or have your heart miss a beat
I don't want you to feel unless it's because of me, because of me


When I put you on a pedestal
Hope I don't become invisible
Never felt more human next to you, next to you

I just want to be the universe
That's as much as all that you deserve
All I'm asking you for what it's worth, what it's worth

I don't want you to smile or shed a tear
Ever hear you say love unless it's in my ear
I don't want you to dance or have your heart miss a beat
I don't want you to feel unless it's because of me

I just want to be the universe
That's as much as all that you deserve
All I'm asking you for what it's worth, what it's worth


I don't want you to smile or shed a tear
Ever hear you say love unless it's in my ear
I don't want you to dance or have your heart miss a beat
I don't want you to feel unless it's because of me

Because of me, because of me, because of me...

Billy Gilman (born William Wendell Gilman III May 24, 1988) is an American country music singer.

Born in Hope Valley, Rhode Island, with his parents Mr. & Mrs. William Gilman Jr., Gilman first received notice as a performer at age seven, attracting the attention of a local vocal coach, Angela Bacari, who later became his manager. Eventually he met with Ray Benson (of Asleep at the Wheel) who helped him record demos, including "Roly Poly". Two months later he was signed by Sony Music Nashville.

His 2000 debut album, One Voice, had a very widely-played single that crossed over well into top 40 airplay. The album reached multi-platinum status, and earned a Grammy nomination. Generally touted as a child prodigy, Gilman appeared on various talk shows. Classic Christmas (which was certified gold) was released later in the year.

He released Dare to Dream (certified gold) on Sony BMG Music Entertainment/Epic Records in 2001, and in 2003 released Music Through Heartsongs, an album inspired by the poetry of Mattie Stepanek. Later in 2003, he performed at a benefit for The Station nightclub fire. In May 2005, he released Everything and More, his first album since his voice changed.

Billy's latest album, self-titled, was released in September 2006 on the Image Entertainment label. The first single off the upcoming album, Southern Star, heralds a return to his country music roots. Billy is scheduled to begin working on his next album with Eddie Galan and Andrew Lane of Trilogy Productions. Read more on Last.fm.
