Lying, a dreamer, dreaming beside me
The city sirens keep me awake
And I know
I'll see you again in the long run
People they tell me I should be careful
That you'll worry, and I'm already miles away
But I know
I'll see you again in the long run
And I know
I'll meet you again in the long run
But we can't be lovers
'Cause I'm still afraid
Of leaving the things I love dearly.
I wander, I roam, I write home to tell you
That I'm sorry,
I won't leave it this late again.
But I know
I'll see you again in the long run
And I know
I'll meet you again in the long run
But I can't be married
You'll take me away
From everything that I love dearly
And we can't be lovers
You'll take me away from my home
My home
My home
But I know
I'll see you again in the long run.
Love it when people put lyrics in the comments so that one doesn't have to google them separately, and can listen, watch n read at the same time. Thankss for this♡
Several years ago I was a beach bum out in California. I used to sing this song and I dedicated it to my first love, whom I didn't speak to anymore. I forgot all about it as one does with even the best song. Five years later, I'm driving down the road with my first love as we'd reconnected. This song comes on my auto play and I got SUCH chills. Wefound each other again, in the long run 🥹❤️
Wow!
We all love, and those people maybe now continents apart, but we have etched ourselves on them and them on us
Music like this makes me feel like everything is going to be just fine.
sweetmusaic. Everything is just fine😊
Well it's not
Brilliant
Manage your expectations, and everything will be
Yes!!
It reminds me of how no matter how much you love someone for who they are in your days, their story is large. The impossibility of being everything your love needs. Sometimes we're missing such a large part of us. Trying to explain that can be difficult. Love still remaining, sentiment goes as far as to explain the moment, with a life left in its wake. It's a love that gets truer when you understand and try.
I wanna have a three in the morning conversation with you
@@barelygettinbyy same
@@barelygettinbyy so do it..
That sounds like poetry
Very wise
Dear TH-cam algorithms. I take back everything bad I ever said about you. I am a deer in the headlights of this song.
Warm tones, beautiful songwriting and sweet melodies... this stirs my soul...
Mr. K
that fingerpicking is beautiful
flyonthewall187 that's what she said
@@matthewandersen7699 It's fingerpicking good!
Its called Travis picking.
I thought it was more like ragtime?
Love this live version. Props to whoever set up the audio... quality is spectacular for a field recording.
t
+Playstation Dude How smart!
Sound is studio recorded and matched to the clip
what leswoodies2 said
leswoodies2 just gotta love people who are constantly talking while they have absolutely no clue. This is not studio recorded.. if you just open your eyes youd see that they all got lavalier mics clipped to their shirts. maybe they mastered it in post too but this is definitely no studiorec.
How the hell I didn't found this gem until 2021? TH-cam keeps hiding to me jewels like this. Now I'm addicted to this trio.
this band is grossly underrated
Do they want ? I listen them every day !
for real tho how am i just now finding them
This is what straight up unadulterated talent sounds like.
Great picking, superb harmonies, what's not to love?
Beautiful!! Place, Song, Voices, Singers---- ALL BEAUTIFUL!! Wow that harmony brings tears to my eyes. Thank you!
Truthfully I came upon this song by complete accident, best mistake today!!
"In The Long Run" (lyrics) hopefully these are right idk xx
Lying, a dreamer dreaming beside me
The city sirens keep me awake
I know I'll see you again in the long run
People, they tell me I should be careful
That you worry and I'm already miles away
But I know I'll see you again in the long run
And I know I'll meet you again in the long run
But we can't be lovers 'cause I'm still afraid
Of leaving the things I love dearly
I wonder, I rode my ride home to tell you
That I'm sorry, I won't leave it this late again
But I know I'll see you again in the long run
And I know I'll meet you again in the long run
But I can't marry, you'll take me away
From everything that I love dearly
And we can't be lovers, you'll take me away
From my home
But I know I'll see you again in the long run
One correction: "I wander, I roam, I write home to tell you".
Thanks for posting the lyrics, though. This song keeps getting more enchanting the more I listen to it. Actually, the Staves just keep getting more and more enchanting. They are like Sirens themselves.
@@alolly121795 Thanks, I thought it was 'rode my ride home to tell you' as well! What a beautiful song...
So beautiful it makes me almost cry. These girls create masterpieces of earthy, melodic English folk.
What’s funny is, me, who’s constantly impatient, skipped the part where they were walking. I didn’t hear their English accents. I’m from America, and totally heard country, bluegrass/mountain music influences in this song. The American shirt threw me off too haha 😂 but hey when you dig deeper you find out origins of country music in America are from the original settlers Scottish and English folk songs inspired American music.
my heart just got broken by the same woman for the second time. meeting friends, talking to them and going outside the house helps me a lot to feel better. but when I'm alone at home or when I can't sleep I watch this video. it gives me a lot of hope. so beautiful, so pure, so perfect. a big "thank you" from switzerland:-)
Manuel Küng i feel the same.
How do u feel now?
Julia eldae I still feel the same. There's a hidden beauty in this song. I have shared this songs with my friends but nobody felt the same way how I did.
I feel a lot better now, thank you:-)
Manuel Küng God bless you
If these ladies gargled together, it would somehow turn out breathtakingly beautiful.
Tony Wyman right
LOL
Hahaha I think you are right
2 years later, that is still a dead on and dead hilarious comment. Cheers.
This song makes me cry everytime i come here but I'll see this comment again, in a long run. 🤞
When I listen to music like this, I am taken back to a much simpler time.
In the Long Run
by The Staves
Lying, a dreamer, dreaming beside me
The city sirens keep me awake
And I know that
I’ll see you again in the long run
People they tell me I should be careful
That you’ll worry, and I’m already miles away
But I know that
I’ll see you again in the long run
And I know that
I’ll meet you again in the long run
But we can’t be lovers
‘Cause I’m still afraid
Of leaving the things I love dearly.
I wander, I roam, I write home to tell you
That I’m sorry,
I won’t leave it this late again.
But I know that
I’ll see you again in the long run
And I know that
I’ll meet you again in the long run
But I can’t be married
You’ll take me away
From everything that I love dearly
And we can’t be lovers
You’ll take me away from my home
My home.......My home
But I know that
I’ll see you again in the long run
This song isn't exactly sad but when she hits the chorus, the wavy thing she does with her voice when she sings "in the long run" ... I'm spouting inexplicable tears.
You’re not tho, why do people always gotta lie to bolster a complimentary comment?
MrGenedancingmachine what part exactly was I lying?
Dean all of it. It’s just the usual hack TH-cam comments on music videos, same as “damn I just spit my coffee all over my screen from laughing” hack comments on comedy videos, no you didn’t spit coffee everywhere and no, YOU didn’t “spout inexplicable tears”
MrGenedancingmachine ah I see, that was 2 years ago and while that’s no excuse, I did end up being unreasonably emotional on hearing the song for the first time and did actually start crying. Maybe it’s the language I used that sounds bullshit to you, but I wasn’t lying. It’s audacious of you to be telling me of what I didn’t do a few years ago.
MrGenedancingmachine nor was it a hack comment or attention seeking btw, I completely forgot I even made it until your reply
ever since this song came out, it has honestly helped me a lot. I first heard it in year 10 of high school 2+ years ago after my grandpa passed away than again when my father passed away. so I'm truly thankful for the beautiful music these sisters produce, write and make ~
catheri_e you have great taste
Paul Bellew thank you ^^
Music is healing the soul. I hope you are ok. I really like this song, too.
reminds me of my ex, who thought I was difficult but in actuality they thought it was just easier to leave me than to even show a bit of concern, so as I was looking at the long run that we would be fine, they looked at the now and thought, it's over... they didn't even try
One of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard, love the Staves
my goal in life is to get 2 good friends of me to just form a staves cover band with me
That's a really hard goal
I'm up for it, if you're in the UK
Their harmonies are so pure and beautiful. A truly precious moment. Thank you so much girls!
I love how they never look at the camera, just at eachother c:
jack jack i love when friends are comfortable with looking at each other,smiling at each other, without feeling weird about it.
+Untainted Heart - They're sisters, so are pretty comfortable together after about 30 years, but why would you be uncomfortable looking and smiling at your friends? How did you even become friends in the first place?
If you have musical siblings, you know what it's like. You just feed off visual clues and intuition.
so beautiful
Cuz they're gay
This is what I imagine the gates of heaven sound like.
My Uncle was suppose to see them in concert when they came to the states. Unfortunately he passed away a month before.
My goal is to go see this amazing group live. That way, he can join me from Heaven. ❤
so sorry about your uncle. hope you get to see them soon!!
What a special uncle.
I'm so sorry to hear that
Tio
Three beautiful girls, with beautiful voices.
Spodgy Shnoz yeah !!
three beautiful girls with coarse language
@O G ew
they're women not girls!!!!!
@@brunovieirafairas6464 no
“But we can't be lovers 'cause I'm still afraid
Of leaving the things I love dearly”
“But I can't be married, you'll take me away
From everything that I love dearly
And we can't be lovers
You'll take me away from my home”
The lyrics, for me, feel like not being able to be with someone because your family/community wouldn’t accept the relationship, resulting in being ostracized/isolated from the world you know and want to belong to. A very familiar sentiment for queer listeners.
This song makes me feel a wave of emotions yet eerily calm at the same time.
Well done bring mosquito repellant next time!
These chicks are witches... Or at least sirens. Beautiful sirens..
Juan Holmes I'd gladly wreck my boat and subsequently drown if that's what it took to get close enough to listen.
Fortunately we have TH-cam to spare us such a fate!
History makes witches bad. They were never bad
I had to come back and watch this for the billionth time. I just love it so much
It’s about the to be midnight and I am not having a good day and this group popped into my spirit and I was so determined to find them. I looked everywhere and found a list of band names this name stood out and I was like THIS IS THEM! I needed this I’m so glad I found you all again
Still de sweetest chicks I ever heard ....God I'm still so in love with ya jess...I just wanna sing with ya ...anywhere anytime xxx Billy, please God and the universe x❤
One thing that feels peaceful is to play on your instrument and singing outside while the sky is blue and the sun goes under. :)
I bet their parents are fantastically proud. I know I would be.
Dam u one rare girl I'm crying why so many beautiful angels that I've dreamed of God bless yall from my sacredly heart
Again, utterly spellbinding. Sounds like this almost transcend music. How these girls produced such magic can only be imagined. I hope they are well and still performing x
i really love this song, and this performance in particular. such masterful songwriting and beautiful poetry. thank you!
Someone special sang this for me before we broke up…still miss her hahaha
''but we can't be lovers 'cause I'm afraid
of leaving the things I love dearly'' literally what i'm going through right now, thank you for this
If a city was built from driftwood; this sound would belong from there
A soothing sound for our daily quarantine.
Beautiful song beautifully done.
This is such a stunning folk track. Joni Mitchell, Nick Drake, Jackson C Frank, The Staves.
Reminiscent of The Roches too - it's time people were re acquainted to The Roches, first two albums particularly.
Excellent song, beautiful voices.
I just came from listening to nick an randomly thought of this tune before bed my friend.
You my friend have excellent taste in music. I saw Nick Drake and I had to comment.
Beautiful lyrics and voices ❤🎉
reminds me of "kathy's song" by simon and garfunkel.. which is no bad thing!
Love Simon and Garfunkel
Yes, the guitar piece is very reminiscent of that!
Seeing them sing with their tones is so mesmerizing.
2021 : still feels so amazing to listen to this 🌼😊💕
The tone of those voices is absolutely heaven.
This is a lot better than the album version. The harmonies sound fantastic. Whoever is producing their studio albums needs to listen closely to this, there's too much prettifying and over-production on their records.
If they did a whole album like this with them just singing over acoustic with little to no studio effects it would easily be their best work so far.
exactly!!! this is them at their best!!!
❤ the legacy of folk music continues :) :) :)
Ive come back to this with happy tears after everytime. It's like being comforted by a woman who loves you.
I wonder of the 3 million views, how many are of me playing this on REPEAT, late night drinking whiskey..lol
I can keep listening to this on a loop and not get tired of it, what a fantastic song!
That lead singer is the most gorgeous
They are so good live, even in the middle of a field. Major props to the soundman
Struck by everything in this masterpiece... what a beautiful and relatable recommendation 😍❤❤
Love homemade music! Didn't Johnny Flynn or Laura Marling do this, too?
👌Beautiful. I really appreciate the simplicity of just one guitar and three beautiful harmonic voices.
Wonder how they recorded this outside? Where are the microphones?
The first girl to sing has absolutely captivated me! She plays in such a similar style to Nick Drake, specifically when he's doing his Jackson C. Frank covers. Anyway, just a lovely lass singing a lovely song.
audio mix on this recording is wonderful!
Man, I never heard of The Staves before today. This song is just a killer.
Thankyou, something about this song, It heals my soul. This makes me feel more human and brought tears to my eyes upon listening the first time.
Magical harmonies.... beautiful in talent and person... Why is this raw talent not seized upon and nurtured to super stardom...
+mayunever Why would you wish super stardom upon them? - paparazzi, loss of privacy, loss of touch with reality, stalkers ... These ladies are perfect as they are.
Okay, God, I finally admit it:
I'm gay
mood
There’s something so familiar about this song such a warm feeling
Lyrics
Lying, a dreamer, dreaming beside me

You'll take me away
From everything that I love dearly

You'll take me away from my home
My home
My home
But I know
I'll see you again in the long run
Whenever I remember this song, I always prefer this one over the studio version. It just feels so different :))
beautiful voices, melody, harmony, beautiful faces, beautiful setting, beautiful.
Reminds me of a line from an old song
"Katie's been gone, and now her face is slowly fading from my mind."
very different sound, but this song seems like the other side
This song is heartbreakingly beautiful
Nice, beautiful song and girls,congratulations ,kisses from Brasil 🎶✌🏽✨
Anyone know the name of the picking pattern she's doing? Or know where i can find a tab?
It is similar to travis picking or outside inside. Just listen to it with reduced speed. That's the way I learned it.
But we can't be married you'll take me away from everything that I love dearly.
And we can't be lovers you'll take me away from my home.
My home...
❤️
this is the meaning of beautiful
Lying, a dreamer dreaming beside me
The city sirens keep me awake
I know I'll see you again in the long run
People, they tell me I should be careful
That you worry and I'm already miles away
But I know I'll see you again in the long run
And I know I'll meet you again in the long run
But we can't be lovers 'cause I'm still afraid
Of leaving the things I love dearly
I wonder, I rode my ride home to tell you
That I'm sorry, I won't leave it this late again
But I know I'll see you again in the long run
And I know I'll meet you again in the long run
But I can't marry, you'll take me away
From everything that I love dearly
And we can't be lovers, you'll take me away
From my home
But I know I'll see you again in the long run
"Oh this fucking guitar is out of tune"
HE HE HE
so many styled like our cultures and how we grew up like it´s normal is fucking creepy
I am so happy to have discovered The Staves a few weeks back
Hopefully I can attend a concert in my near future. You lovely ladies are in my regular rotation of music to listen too everyday. Your heavenly voices puts me into a fabulous mood instantly.
Rebecca if you ever read this I fucking miss you so much...
This is one my favorite songs, thank you some much for this !
Ah this fucking guitar is out of tune.
Just more perfect harmonies !!
could anyone suggest underrated songs or artists somewhat similar to this. please?
I would most definitely recommend Laura Marling and Johnny Flynn
The are flawless.
I dedicate this song to my beautiful Aries Rabbit, the only woman I've ever loved 🌹. I miss you SO much...
Stone Shire, always stealing my heart and whisking me away. 💕
@@careyanngroves9703 ❤❤❤❤❤
My dream girl ❤❤❤❤
Their voices...pure gold.
Every thing is fine
I actually LOVE them... So good! Glad music like this isnt dead :D x
Thank you 🙏 right Dr. Prosko, tonight. I reminded you Of you, and you of me. Prosko, Sherman, whiting. 🙏 Thank you. Best of Pa
Reminds me of "blues run the game"
its definitely got the same feel to it and i think its the same key aswell
And Don't Think Twice it's Alright
I recommend you; if you did not do it already, listen to the version made by alela diane of that song
Boots of Spanish leather
@@blueboyjournal And Kathy's song.
I like going tinkle in the woods.
This song is cool as well.
sounds so beautiful
april 27th 2019 this is awesome
God that's so sweet, in a wonderful way.
I wasn't ready....
