Who Will I Hold
The Avett Brothers
[Intro] x2 [Chorus] You slip through my hands Like I did through my dad’s Like a river that passes The rocks that its on I’m bracing for loneliness I know its coming Who will I hold when you’re gone Now who will I hold when youre gone [Verse 1] Now happiness comes And it seems much like money People gather round it When its gone they go running Im trying to be here Lift up to the now But the past has to come And pulls me back down [Chorus] You slip through my hands Like I did through my lover’s Like a river that passes The bed that its on I’m bracing for loneliness I know its coming Who will I hold when you’re gone Now who will I hold when youre gone x2 [Verse 2] Now these victims of love Most hopeless of all Fortunate prisoners in an infinite war They turn on themselves its pure sabotage Silver spoon babies with Tupperware hearts Silver spoon babies with Tupperware hearts [Chorus] You slip through my hands Like I did through my mamma’s Like a river that passes The rocks that its on I’m bracing for loneliness I know its coming Who will I hold when youre gone Now who will I hold when youre gone Who will I hold when youre gone Now who will I hold when youre gone
