Life - The Avett Brothers

One comes of it, love it, love it

Let go of it, love comes from it

We’re not of this world for long

Faith and promise, keep me honest

When starvation falls upon us

Daylight told me he would be

Gone with cold words spoke among hers

Wretched is the tongue of their world

We’re not of that world at all

We will never be

Wouldn’t it be fine to stand behind

The words we say in the best of times

Oh, and you and I know all too well

About the hell and paradise right here on earth

Keep it, use it, build it, move it

Claims can’t touch how time will prove it

Watch us fly as loud as we can

Let her heartbeat change what I am now

Wouldn’t it be fine to stand behind

The words we say in the best of times

Oh, and you and I know all too well

About the hell and paradise right here on earth
