Avett Brothers, The - Left On Laura, Left On Lisa Lyrics
Nobody knows it but I am so sad
Nobody knows it but I am so sad
And that is the saddest of all my girl
That is the saddest of all
Never letting go of your hand
The sky trades the moon for the sun my girl
The sky trades the moon for the sun
And I gave to you my ugly brown coat
You made it pretty when you put it on
Warmth in the early morning chill my girl
Warmth in the early April
Then you said you'd trade the love of a man
Said you'd trade your heart for mine my girl
I traded my heart for those days
And you made it clear it was strictly a deal
Of springtime love and that's how I should feel
So I set the clock back an hour my girl
I set the time a just right
You see somewhere back there when I was boy
Furious I had become by the point
That men are just liars and thieves of sorts
Men are just liars and thieves
But I still believe and I stand by my words
I don't know what you have seen or you've heard
But somebody's lying to you my girl
Somebody's lying to you
You really made me believe I could stay
Part with you actions in part what you said
But that was just foolish pride my girl
And those are only feelings inside
So I'm going back to the place where we met
I'm going to find the beer bottle we left
Wedged in the limbs of the tree that we sat in
Wedged in the magnolia tree
Well we hid for days like a proud pair of thieves
Too sure we were right too stubborn too leave
Wasted with the moment we lifted my girl
Stolen forever with you

You should hear my 14-year-old son play this - he LOVES this song and this kind of music! Thanks for that, thanks for that.
When your name is Lisa, so you fucks with this song 😂
Nobody knows it but I am so sad...
+Darrell Brock ;(
Doug M hope you're feeling better now
Doug M love you, bro.
Doug M :)
It's a year, later...hope you are happy, now!
God Bless
I wish songs like this were on the radio =/ maybe more people would be more into meaningful music than edm
Can things that are subtle and specific be meaningful, or does it have to be explicitly philosophical and also general
crappybumbum I guess I'm wrong for being a long time fan and being mad that I have to share them with others. I'd prefer them to stay quiet but they've earned their recognition
This is actually my favorite song by them. They had a unique way of creating momentum without a drum beat. To me there isn't any other group this unique and talented. I've researched their past and they're just great people.
Nobody knows it, but I am so sad, and that is the saddest of all....
I love this so much!!!!!! :D
Top five Avett Brothers song for me. Thumb up!
It's definitely up there for me too
+Lisa McGarvey agreed. some of their songs are about my life i swear
+Ryan Elmquist I'm the same way, its uncanny. Every time I convince myself It's a coincidence I come across more of the same.
Yes Indeed
"I traded my heart for those days"
How? I only ask because I've been a fan for both for a looong time. I would just love to hear what Tim said about the Bros.
who thumbed down? eeediottt
Tim Barry brought me here. I will own this album <3
Gosh i love them
my name is laura. my sister's name is lisa. she died when i was 15. this song makes me think of her and remember her beautiful smile :)
I know it was 5 years ago you made this comment but my condolences. What a beautiful way to remember a beautiful memory and, I'm sure to you, a beautiful soul.
You made it pretty when you put it on!
pure poetic genius.
@diris18 yup its good ol bobby crawford
who starts singing around 2:45? is it Bob? doesn't sound like either of the brothers
Pretty sure that's Bob :) Most of the time when it is not Scott or Seth it is Bob
@EdAndMumfordLife I came from the same source. you heading to nashville?
@EdAndMumfordLife lol you too.
1 person doesnt have a soul.. or ears
nobody knows it but i am so sad and that is the saddest of all
Their songs always hit the heart strings...
One person missed the like button.
@kelasman
this song live is amazing
The sky trades the moon for the sun
somewhere back there when i was a boy furious i had to come by the ploy that men are just liars and thieves of sorts men are just liars and thieves
Wow, what an amazing song! And the funny thing is, I have two sisters called Laura and Liza, pity Liza's name isn't spelt with an 's' though =)
but that is the saddest of all
