The Mourning the Silver the Bell by Timothy Seth Avett As Darling Lyrics

Genre: country | Year: 2006

Do you know me?
Well, I know you
Just like I know that the sun is blue
The grass is orange and the sky in green
And a woman's heart runs on gasoline

Did you see me?
Well, I saw you
So late at night that the day was new
And after taking a heavy dose
And the funny thing is: my eyes were closed

Wrong
As the day is long
As her light swears on
As her "love you" song sings to me

When I'm quiet
I hear you call
Whispering words I don't know at all
But if I move closer so I can hear
Well I know your voice might just disappear
Wrong
As the day is long
As her light stays on
As her "love you" song sings at me

I'm the mourning
I'm the aching
I'm the coulor
I'm the fading
I'm the under
I'm the saving
I'm the silver
I'm the bell

Do I know you?
Well, you know me
Just like you know one and one makes three
And snowflakes fall in the summer breeze
And your money grows from the apple trees

Is this over?
Well, you tell me
I heard that love lasts eternally
But when I reach over to touch your hair
Well, I realize that there's no one there
Wrong
As the day is long
As her light swears on
As her "love you" song sings to me

Oh

I'm the mourning
I'm the aching
I'm the cover
I'm the taking
I'm the lover
I'm the killer
I could lover her
I could kill her
I'm the keeping (I'm the keeping)
I'm the sending (I'm the sending)
I'm the sleeping (I'm the sleeping)
I'm the bending (I'm the bending)
I'm the only (I'm the only)
I'm the waiting (I'm the waiting)
I'm the knowing (I'm the knowing)
I'm the shaking (I'm the shaking)
I'm the hoping (I'm the hoping)
I'm the changing (I'm the changing)
I'm the falling (I'm the falling)
I'm the breaking (I'm the breaking)
I'm the colour (I'm the colour)
I'm the fading (I'm the fading)
I'm the silver (I'm the silver)
I'm the bell
I'm the mourning (x5) [voice cracking more with each line]
