The Avett Brothers - The Perfect Space lyrics

rate me

I wanna have friends that I can trust,<br />

that love me for the man I've become not the man I was.<br />

I wanna have friends that will let me be<br />

all alone when being alone is all that I need.<br />

<br />

I wanna fit in to the perfect space,<br />

feel natural and safe in a volatile place.<br />

And I wanna grow old without the pain,<br />

give my body back to the earth and not complain.<br />

Will you understand when I am too old of a man?<br />

And will you forget when we have paid our debt<br />

who did we borrow from? Who did we borrow from? <br />

<br />

Okay part two now clear the house.<br />

The party's over take the shouting and the people,<br />

get out!<br />

<br />

I have some business and a promise that I have to hold to.<br />

I do not care what you assume or what the people told you.<br />

Will you understand, when I am too old of a man?<br />

Will you forget when we have paid our debts,<br />

who did we borrow from? Who did borrow from?<br />

<br />

I wanna have pride like my mother has,<br />

And not like the kind in the bible that turns you bad.<br />

And I wanna have friends that I can trust,<br />

that love me for the man I've become and not the man that I was

<br />
