Original Broadway Cast of Rent
I’ll Cover You (Reprise)
[COLLINS]
Live in my house
I’ll be your shelter
Just pay me back
With one thousand kisses
Be my lover
And I’ll cover you
Yeah

Open your door
I’ll be your tenant
Don’t got much baggage
To lay at your feet
But sweet kisses I’ve got to spare
I’ll be there
And I’ll cover you
Oh

I think they meant it
When they said you can’t buy love
Now I know you can rent it
A new lease you were my love
On life
All my life
I’ve longed to discover
Something as true as this is
Yeah
