Standing With You

The Avett Brothers · Other Songs - The Avett Brothers

Well it's been a pretty rough couple of years

but I think things will change for us,

and I'll always look but you before me,

unless of course it's dangerous.



Standing with you, I'm standing with you

I might miss the rhythm but I'm catching the tune,

and that's something for me,

yeah that's something for me.



Well I told you I won't make the same mistake again,

but you know I'll probably will,

and so many night go down like a flash from a camera

without any film.



But we don't need to remember

every single moment we've had,

and I don't need understanding

for every single moment I've had



As long as I'm standing with you, I'm standing with you

I might miss the rhythm but I'm catching the tune,

and that's something for me,

yeah that's something for me.



And I'll be walking with you, and walking with you

I might miss the meaning but I'm catching the truth

and that's pretty good for me

yeah that's pretty good for me.



Well it's been a pretty rough couple of years

but I think things will change for us,

Yeah it's been a pretty rough couple of years

but I think things will change for us.
