    I live in Northern Ireland and my main music aim in life is to see the Avett Brothers live, if I have to travel large distances for that then so be it!

      Red Rocks Amphitheater in Morrison Colorado. They do 3 shows every year there and it’s one of the best venues in the US.

    Why can't they record their albums like this? The beautiful imperfections, the song, and the voices that paint feelings we didn't know we had..

    "I love you, I'm sorry" has got to be the most beautiful (and sad) line in a song ever

      Why is it sad? I can't even count the number of times I've said "I'm sorry" and it not be sad.

      @richhadfield3836 7 ปีที่แล้ว +24

      Right...I think he is apologizing for not being able to be a song, a sweater, or a fire.
      I'm sorry, but I am not a everything you need or everything I want to be for you...but I am something better.
      or he is sorry for being insecure...or not knowing what to do. Almost like hopelessly and helplessly in love. Love you, sorry.
      Like when you are truly in love, there aren't words to describe it. You want to be everything for them, but you can't...you can only be you...

      He is apologizing for trying to come too close by admitting to his love. He used to keep their being together safe and special by making things light, calm and warm (flame, song, sweater) whilst keeping a certain distance. But now he has written this letter by which he wants to be acknowledged as a lover, and that might ruin everything.

      Rich Hadfield. Most guys apologize for whatever argument the partner has brought up in order to just have a decent nights sleep, even knowing full well your partner is the one responsible for the error.. also apologizing leads to make up sex .. great song but saying “ I’m sorry “ is cringe worthy..

    • @missysyvrud6783
      @missysyvrud6783 4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Agree! The most beautiful and sad line ever! Anyone who has been in a relationship where the feelings aren't quite matched knows the heaviness of that.

    "I Wish I Was"
    I wish I was a flame dancing in a candle
    Lighting up your living room high on the mantle
    I could bring some romance without any scandal
    And then when you were done you'd just put me out
    I wish I was a tune you sang in your kitchen
    Putting your groceries away and washing your dishes
    I could float around your tongue and ease the tension
    And then when you were done you'd just quiet down
    But if I get too close
    Will the magic fade?
    Would I turn you off or away?
    If I pull you in
    Would I push you out
    Of something here you care about?
    Well I'm at a loss for what to do
    But I'm drawn to you
    I wish I was a sweater wrapped around your hips
    And when it got too cold into me you'd slip
    And when the sun came back you would hang me up
    And I would watch you while you undress
    But if I get too close
    Will the magic fade?
    Would I turn you off or away?
    If I pull you in
    Now would I push you out
    Of something here you care about?
    Well I'm at a loss for what to do
    But I'm drawn to you
    I'm not a song
    I am not a sweater
    I'm not a fire
    I am something better
    I'm a man in love writing you a letter
    Will you take it
    Will you keep it
    Will you read it
    Believe it
    I love you
    I'm sorry.
