The Avett Brothers - A Gift For Melody Anne lyrics

I wanna get back I wanna get square I wanna get back on the hopes and dreams that I had That the good lord above us can spare Like that actor said I don't wanna lose heart I don't wanna get beat beat down by the big big world I'll quit before I even start. Lord, I just want my life to be true (I just want my life to be true) And I just want my heart you be true (just want my heart to be true) I just want my words to be true (I just want my words) I want my soul to feel brand new I wanna hold hands Yeah, and I wanna make love And I wanna keep running all day, and all night Even when my mind tell my body "that's enough" And I wanna stand up Yeah, and I wanna stand tall If I ever have a son, if I ever have a daughter I don't wanna tell them that I didn't give my all And I just wan my life to be true (I just want my life to be true) And I just want my heart you be true (just want my heart to be true) I just want my words to be true (I just want my words) I want my soul to feel brand, brand new Like a fresh coat of paint We could make it anything but blue Anything but blue Now, when your dreams start saying "I can't come true, you'd be better off without me" Don't let them go Don't let them go I don't wanna go broke Not from one bad deal I don't wanna be up all night crying in my hands for a girl That isn't even real Lord, I just want my life to be true (I just want my life to be true) And I just want my heart you be true (just want my heart to be true) And I just want my words to be true (I just want my words to be true) And I just want my song to be true (Just want my song to be true) And I just want my heart you be true (just want my heart to be true) And I just want my heart you be true (just want my heart to be true) And I just want my words to be true (I just want my words to be true) And I just want my heart you be true (just want my heart to be true) And I just want my life to be true (I just want my life to be true) And I just want my song to be true (Just want my song to be true) And I just want my life to be true (I just want my life to be true) I want my soul to feel brand new I want my soul to feel brand new
