Beside the Yellow Line - The Avett Brothers

In time, won’t be long

Until we meet again

Except we’ll just be friends

My God, yeah I know

That’s just the way it goes

Out here on the road

Beside the yellow line

'Bout five years ago

I came about this way

But I doubt they’ll know my face

The land hasn’t changed

The stars still pierce the black

And I’m glad that I came back

Beside the yellow line

The mind of a girl

It’s hard to understand

But I guess 'cause I’m a man

Her heart fears are unknown

Until I am gone

Gotta leave her all alone

Beside the yellow line

And the call of the road

Unlike the railroad tracks

Unlike the airplane’s path

Her voice floats through the land

And it takes me by the hand

So once again I stand

Beside the yellow line
