The Avett Brothers
The Greatest Sum (Acoustic) - Acoustic
Listen, who I used to be
Don't matter much at all to me
To pin you down, to plant your feet's
A far cry from my destiny

Not even the clouds
Not even the past
Not even the hands of God
Could hold back from you

Dark and lonely is the ride
The devil always by my side
Though no match for what lies between
The thought of you
Your trust for me

Not even the sun
A bullet from a gun
No, nothing that this world could bring or
Anything someone could do
Could hold me back from you

No can of gold placed in my hand
The largest find
The greatest sum
Though some would say
It'd ease our pain
We know that it can't be done
Not even the sun
Not even the clouds
Not even the past
No, nothing that this world can bring or anything someone can do
Could hold me back from you
Could hold me back from you
Could hold me back from you
