The Avett Brothers - I and Love and You lyrics

Load the car and write the note


Grab your bag and grab your coat

Tell the ones that need to know

We are headed north



One foot in and one foot back

But it don't pay, to live like that

So i cut the ties and i jumped the tracks

For never to return



Ah Brooklyn Brooklyn take me in

Are you aware the shape I'm in

My hands they shake my head it spins

Ah Brooklyn Brooklyn take me in



When at first I learned to speak

I used all my words to fight

With him and her and you and me

Oh but its just a waste of time

Yeah its such a waste of time



That woman shes got eyes that shine

Like a pair of stolen polished dimes

She asked to dance I said it's fine

I'll see you in the morning time



Ah Brooklyn Brooklyn take me in

Are you aware the shape im in

My hands they shake my head it spins

Ah Brooklyn Brooklyn take me in



Three words that became hard to say

I and love and you

What you were then, I am today

Look at the things I do



Ah Brooklyn Brooklyn take me in

Are you aware the shape I'm in

My hands they shake my head it spins

Ah Brooklyn Brooklyn take me in



Dumbed down and numbed by time and age

Your dreams to catch the world, the cage

The highway sets the travelers stage

All exits look the same



Three words that became hard to say

I and love and you

I and love and you

I and love and you

There’s a darkness upon me that’s flooded in light
In the fine print they tell me what’s wrong and what’s right
And it comes in black and it comes in white
And I’m frightened by those that don’t see it

When nothing is owed or deserved or expected
And your life doesn’t change by the man that’s elected
If you’re loved by someone, you’re never rejected
Decide what to be and go be it

There was a dream and one day I could see it
Like a bird in a cage I broke in and demanded that somebody free it
And there was a kid with a head full of doubt
So I’ll scream til I die and the last of those bad thoughts are finally out

There’s a darkness upon you that’s flooded in light
And in the fine print they tell you what’s wrong and what’s right
And it flies by day and it flies by night
And I’m frightened by those that don’t see it

There was a dream and one day I could see it
Like a bird in a cage I broke in and demanded that somebody free it
And there was a kid with a head full of doubt
So I’ll scream til I die and the last of those bad thoughts are finally out

There was a dream and one day I could see it
Like a bird in a cage I broke in and demanded that somebody free it
And there was a kid with a head full of doubt
So I’ll scream til I die and the last of those bad thoughts are finally out

There’s a darkness upon me that’s flooded in light
In the fine print they tell me what’s wrong and what’s right
There’s a darkness upon me that’s flooded in light
And I’m frightened by those that don’t see it

Song: Head Full Of Doubt, Road Full Of Promise

Love this Band....My husband ran across this band one day and it's become one of our favorites.... if you haven't heard them you must! They are so talented!
 Here is one of my favorites right now...



There’s a darkness upon me that’s flooded in light


In the fine print they tell me what’s wrong and what’s right

And it comes in black and it comes in white

And I’m frightened by those that don’t see it



When nothing is owed or deserved or expected

And your life doesn’t change by the man that’s elected

If you’re loved by someone, you’re never rejected

Decide what to be and go be it



There was a dream and one day I could see it


Like a bird in a cage I broke in and demanded that somebody free it


And there was a kid with a head full of doubt

So I’ll scream til I die and the last of those bad thoughts are finally out



There’s a darkness upon you that’s flooded in light

And in the fine print they tell you what’s wrong and what’s right

And it flies by day and it flies by night

And I’m frightened by those that don’t see it



There was a dream and one day I could see it

Like a bird in a cage I broke in and demanded that somebody free it

And there was a kid with a head full of doubt

So I’ll scream til I die and the last of those bad thoughts are finally out



There was a dream and one day I could see it

Like a bird in a cage I broke in and demanded that somebody free it

And there was a kid with a head full of doubt

So I’ll scream til I die and the last of those bad thoughts are finally out



There’s a darkness upon me that’s flooded in light

In the fine print they tell me what’s wrong and what’s right

There’s a darkness upon me that’s flooded in light

And I’m frightened by those that don’t see it

Fork in the Road...

I am a creative person be nature so for me I need to express myself everyday in some way to feel true happiness…


I get caught up in the same routine

Wake up, shower, go to work, come home, sleep …..Repeat.

Life is not meant to be lived this way.

It comes down to this …

What do I really want to be doing?

What am I expected to be doing?

I am expected to be working some dead end job that will never get me anywhere… it will simply ensure I have money.

Or

Do want I really want to do and struggle.
