The Greatest Sum (Electric) - The Avett Brothers

This and who I used to be

Don’t matter much at all to me

The pit you dug to plant your feet’s

A far cry from my destiny

Not even the clouds

Not even the past

Not even the hands of God

Could hold me back from you

Dark and lonely is the ride

The devil always by my side

Though no match for what lies between

A thought of you, your trust for me

Not even the sun

A bullet from a gun

No nothing that this world could bring

Or anything someone could do

Could hold me back from you

No count of gold placed in my hand

The largest find, the greatest sum

Though some would say it’d ease our pain

We know that it can’t be done

Not even the sun

Not even the clouds

Not even the past

No nothing that this world could bring

Or anything someone could do

Could hold me back from you

Could hold me back from you

Could hold me back from you
