I know, I know. I’m taking a serious chance posting a song for discussion on a Friday night, but I’m out of content right now and I love this song. So even if nobody cares to discuss it, I will smile when I come here and see it. I’m looking for a way to post the song, but in the meantime, go here, click the play button, then minimize the window. You should be able to listen to the entire song and still see the words at the same time.
So…anyone else a fan of the Avett Brothers?

A Gift for Melody Anne by The Avett Brothers
I want to get back
I want to get square
I want to get back on the hopes
and dreams that I have
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
Or quit
Before I even start
Lord, I just want my life to be true
Yeah, and I just want my heart to be true
Yeah, and I just want my words to be true
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 tells 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 ‘em that I didn’t give my all
And, I just want my life to be true
Yeah, and I just want my heart to be true
Yeah, and I just want my words to be true
I want my soul to feel brand brand new
Like a fresh coat of paint
We can 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 ‘em go
Don’t let ‘em 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
Yeah, and I just want my heart to be true
And, I just want my words to be true
Yeah, and I just want my song to be true
Yeah, and I just want my heart to be true
Yeah, and I just want my life to be true
Yeah, and I just want my words to be true
And, I just want my heart to be true
Yeah, and I just want my life to be true
And, I just want my song to be true
And, I just want my life to be true
I want my soul to feel brand new
I want my soul to feel brand new
