Tonight I'll burn the lyrics, 'Cause every chorus was your name

Artist- The Avett Brothers
Song of the day- Laundry Room

There are many reasons I cherish my friend Whitney Green, and introducing me to the avett brothers is just one of them. They always seem to remind me of the fall for some reason and Texas. And also the amazing lyric / musician combo is just hard to beat. So here's a little southern charm from brothers who i think are actually from North Carolina, either way enjoy!



Don't push me out,
Just a little longer
Stall your mother,
Disregard your father's words.

Close the laundry door,
Tiptoe across the floor
Keep your clothes on,
I got all that I can take
Teach me how to use
The love that people say you made

Stop your parents' car
I just saw a shooting star
We can wish upon it
But we wont share the wish we made
But I cant keep no secrets,

I wish that you would always stay

Last night I dreamt the whole night long
I woke with a head full of songs
I spent the whole day
I wrote 'em down, but its a shame
Tonight I'll burn the lyrics,
'Cause every chorus was your name

Break this tired old routine
And this time don't make me leave

I am a breathing time machine,
I'll take you all for a ride
