lyrics

I’ll trade all of my money for one last pack of strings
And if you promise to go with me then we’ll take the world like kings
But we won’t go where the wind blows
No we won’t go where the wind blows
We’ll only go the places we’re shown
And let the light let us not be alone

I’ll trade away my right hand to keep yours inside my left
To hear you whisper softly feel your head against my chest
In my pocket I’ve been hiding a ring
And trying to express you in these foolish melodies
I’ll love and will pull you up and out when you sink
It’s the cost of the joy that you bring to me

I’ll trade all of my money for one baby girl
I’ll do my best to show her all the dirt that’s in the world
The world needs the dirt to grow
Those flowers, they can’t bloom in the snow
She’ll raise up the world with the beauty she’s shown
So I’ll teach my baby girl all I know

I’ll trade all of my money for one precious boy
I’ll do my best to raise him in the lust and in the world
I hope he is sweeter than me
I hope that he’s braver than me
I hope that he takes after you
And lets his heart be the lead of his feet

Remember all the times that you kissed me on the cheek
And said sometimes we’re in the valley, sometimes we’re at that peak
I’ll love you as long as you continue to seek
What little good your small hands can bring

I know that you’re sweeter than me
I know that you’re braver than me
I keep hoping I can take after you
And let my heart be the lead of my feet

I’ll trade all of my money for one last pack of strings
And if you promise to go with me then we’ll take the world like kings
