A Fathers First Spring
The Avett Brothers

Sweetest surrender of winter

She put up her flag, it is waving

The thunder of summer is rumbling in

And I haven't seen you in days

And my, how that feeling has changed

Oh, I have been homesick for you since we met

I have been homesick for you

I've got to take to the sky

And I'll tell you what that means for you and I

If I die it's for you

If I die it's for you

I never lived 'til I lived in your light

And my heart never beat like it does at the sight

Of you baby blue, God blessed your life

I do not live 'less I live in your light

I do not live 'less I live in your light

The realest thing I ever felt

Was the blood on the floor and the love in your yell

I was a child before

The day that I met Eleanor

Kiss of the wind in the hills

The clearness of morning, the late evening thrill

Blurry and gray like the roar

The wheels on the highway, above them I soar

When I'm in the sweet daughter's eyes

My heart is now ruined for the rest of all time

There's no part of it left to give

There's no part of it left to give

I never lived 'til I lived in your light

And my heart never beat like it does at the sight

Of you baby blue, God blessed your life

I do not live 'less I live in your light

I do not live 'less I live in your light

I do not live
