Pretty Girl from Matthews - The Avett Brothers

Hold on a minute it ain’t time to leave

Tell me how you’re feeling one more time

Four long years and I just can’t believe

That I’m still yours and you’re still mine

While I was gone, yes, I fell in love

Asked around and heard that you did too

Two drunken years and push came to shove

I met love, love left me blue

You’re rising like a sun

That pulled the curtain on the night

Coming through the window

To brighten up my life

And I’m all right, yeah, I think I’m fine

My savior lives in telephones

And I just dream of you and step outside

Dial up and hope that you’re home

You’re rising like a sun

That waits up all night

Coming through the window

To brighten up my life

Hold on a minute, yeah, I do love you

Sometimes I guess that ain’t enough

When you come round you put me through

And I thank you, oh, so much

Another year, maybe, three or four

Maybe five or six or even more

You’ll find another man to take my place

And I’ll see you on the good Lord’s shores

You’re rising like a sun

That pulled the curtain on the night

Coming through the window

To brighten up my life
