"Received" lyrics
The Avett Brothers & Mike Patton Lyrics
There is no wondering
If you're awake
Or what it's like to be deprived
Of what it takes
To see the shoreline
And what it means
To walk away from every gift of love that you've ever
Received
There is a question
Easy to ask
But once it's answered
You can't take it back
Sometimes I try
It laughs at me
It is the source of every gift of love I've ever
Received
Received
You give your heart
I give you mine
We trade conditions
Over the line
I hear the voice
Call to me
It is the sound of every gift of love I've ever
Received
There is a distance
That we will reach
A desert sky
A lonely beach
A quiet valley
A field of green
Atop the mountain
The canyon beneath
An open door
A hotel suite
An empty building
A crowded street
A little puddle
Enormous sea
A heart's rebuttal
A loser's plea
It is the home of every gift of love I've ever
Received
Received
Received
Received
If you're awake
Or what it's like to be deprived
Of what it takes
To see the shoreline
And what it means
To walk away from every gift of love that you've ever
Received
There is a question
Easy to ask
But once it's answered
You can't take it back
Sometimes I try
It laughs at me
It is the source of every gift of love I've ever
Received
Received
You give your heart
I give you mine
We trade conditions
Over the line
I hear the voice
Call to me
It is the sound of every gift of love I've ever
Received
There is a distance
That we will reach
A desert sky
A lonely beach
A quiet valley
A field of green
Atop the mountain
The canyon beneath
An open door
A hotel suite
An empty building
A crowded street
A little puddle
Enormous sea
A heart's rebuttal
A loser's plea
It is the home of every gift of love I've ever
