[Verse 1] She walks in like a wildfire, Lipstick red and whiskey strong, Got a heart full of scars and a temper That could turn a right into a wrong. She don't need some pretty boy With a pocket full of lines, She needs a man who'll stand beside her When the whole damn world goes blind. And I ain't scared of your demons, baby, I've got a few of my own. You can bring me every broken piece, I'll make this heart your home. I don't need a perfect woman, I don't need an easy life, I'd rather fight beside you forever Than live one day without you, wife. [Chorus] I'll love you like Rip loves Beth, With every damn breath I've got left. When the world comes knocking at our door, I'll be the man standing between you and the war. I'll take your crazy, I'll take your pain, I'll kiss your tears and dance in the rain. Girl, I ain't promising heaven— I'm promising I'll never leave. I'll love you like Rip loves Beth, Like you're the last thing this heart will ever need. [Verse 2] I'll remember every little thing You swear nobody sees, The way you hide your hurt with laughter, The way you fall apart with me. I'll sit beside you on the porch When the whiskey starts to burn, And if you've got a lifetime of regrets, Baby, I'll take my turn. Like that ranch under Montana skies, Where love ain't always pretty, Sometimes it's blood, sometimes it's battle, Sometimes it's damn sure gritty. But when you finally let me hold you, I won't ever let you go. I'll be your shelter in the storm, Your fire when the cold winds blow. [Chorus] I'll love you like Rip loves Beth, With every damn breath I've got left. When the world comes knocking at our door, I'll be the man standing between you and the war. I'll take your crazy, I'll take your pain, I'll kiss your tears and dance in the rain. Girl, I ain't promising heaven— I'm promising I'll never leave. I'll love you like Rip loves Beth, Like you're the last thing this heart will ever need. [Bridge – Slow, Emotional] And if someday we're old and gray, Sitting underneath that porch light, I'll still look at you the same damn way I did that very first night. You won't have to wonder where I stand, You won't have to question why— I'll be holding your hand when the sun goes down, And I'll be there when we say goodbye. [Verse 3] I'll fight for you without asking If the fight is worth the cost. I'll find you when you're running, I'll hold you when you're lost. And I don't care what the world thinks, Let 'em talk behind our backs. A man's supposed to protect his woman, Not keep a scoreboard of what she lacks. So give me your wild heart, Give me every jagged edge. I'll give you my name, my soul, my word, And everything I've got left. 'Cause some men love when it's easy, Some disappear when it gets tough— But baby, I was built for forever, And forever ain't long enough. [Final Chorus – Big 90s Country] I'll love you like Rip loves Beth, Till there's nothing but a heartbeat left. When the whole damn world says we can't make it through, I'll burn down every road just to get back to you. I'll take your crazy, I'll take your pain, Your midnight tears and your hurricane. Girl, I ain't promising heaven— I'm promising I'll never leave. I'll love you like Rip loves Beth, Like you're the last thing this heart will ever need. [Outro] So if you're looking for a man Who'll love you when the good times end, Who'll stand beside you when the bullets fly, Who'll still be there when the credits roll… Baby, look at me. I'm your Rip. You're my Beth. And I'm loving you till there's nothing left
