Eli Young Band - Guinevere Lyrics






She's got a bumper like a billboard
Covered in stickers of her favorite bands
She's got a handful of records that she turns to
When she needs to land
She's a Saturday night parade through the streets
That all eyes come to see including me

She carries memories around like souvenirs down in her pockets
She should have let some go by now but can't seem to drop it
Says forgiveness ain't nothing but a lifeless tire on the shoulder of her soul
That never rolls

For as much as she stumbled she's runnin'
For as much as she runs she's still here
Always hoping to find something quicker than Heaven
To make the damage of her days disappear
Just like Guinevere
Just like Guinevere

She don't hold onto nothin' new for very long
Yeah she writes you in as just one more tale
and then you're gone
'Cause she once fell hard 'cause she dropped her guard
And no one gets to stay it's just too late

For as much as she stumbled she's runnin'
For as much as she runs she's still here
Always hoping to find something quicker than Heaven
To make the damage of her days disappear
Just like Guinevere
Just like Guinevere

For as much as she stumbled she's runnin'
For as much as she runs she's still here

For as much as she stumbled she's runnin'
For as much as she runs she's still here
Always hoping to find something quicker than Heaven
To make the damage of her days disappear
Just like Guinevere
Just like Guinevere

Lean into me Guinevere
Be mine tonight Guinevere

    Classic song that i love so much. Gives me that orgasmic feel each time i listen it since 2012 and till today. It has been 7 years and each time i listen to it, it brings me a deep, special & sweet memories. Thanks Eli Young Band for this beautiful creation ❤

  6. R.... C....

    Super generic sounding, but legit pretty good lyrics

  7. F.... H....

    Really loved this at the concert in Duluth, MN last night. I love this song and it was a nice surprise. Meeting you guys.....one huge check off the bucket list! Will repeat! Mike......your voice can mellow the devil and I am glad that after waiting years and years I got a dream come true. Thank you all. You're humble and kind.

  8. T.... ....

    Im still emotionally unavailable just like guinevere

  9. R.... P....

    Who is this girl? So pretty

  10. G.... B....

    Love this song.....wonder why?? Lol

  11. N.... K....

    My Guinevere is my beautiful daughter.

  12. B.... W....

    This was one of your favorite songs baby, everytime I hear it I think of you. Even though we can't be together I'll always love you.

  13. P.... H....

    My girlfriend recently had to go to jail for a year. When I miss her, which is most of the time, and I gotta remind myself to stay strong, I listen to music she loves. Which brings me to this beautiful song

  14. K.... H....

    Who is the girl in the video? It's been impossible to find out.

  15. S.... B....

    I still Love this song including Eli Young Band!! Dallas Texas Loves Y’all!!! ❤️DFW

  16. h.... r....

    off Spotify again :(

  17. T.... K....

    10 years later, still my favorite song

  18. S.... ....

    Quicker than heaven.

  19. A.... A....

    Bad ass song will always be one of my favorites

  20. A.... T....

    I want to name my first daughter Guinevere. This song makes me love the name even more

  21. G.... C....

    this is actually really weird when your name IS Guinevere

  22. G.... 9....

    The original video showed swinging feet under the bridge. I guess they removed that snap shot

  23. G.... P....

    This was truly my song!

  24. A.... K....

    I relate to this song so.much

  25. C.... H....

    I found the most complete living Guinevere so perfectly matching the woman this song showed me I'm meant to find. I never willsay more serious words than that I saw my soulmate clearas day every time this song played. The exact one that if some how blessed enough to meet that one person who will ever see this earth that God designed every detail so that we make each other so much better people by the way our best and worst fit into one another in a way causing every single bit of who we are to be perfect for making lives fill with hope again. I had known as soon as we met i had found my Guinevere I just had to gget you to see me as someone to take a chance on one time. I sent you the song. You said how that had been a favorite of yours a long time now. I discovered that both of us had posted it to our facebook 5 plus years ago in the same month. That's enough proof that should get anyone convinced they have to see if they might really be one of the few that gets their forever beside the actual one true love that 99 percent of people are cursed to live their lives longing for While never getting anywhere close to finding before giving up to settle for a half decent person who you feel a earthly desire for as well as feel like you get a worldly purpose from. I don't know how your feeling about us yet but j have no doubt you will see that u have found your perfect life in me and you can let me have all of your self and will have no regrets ever again

  26. C.... J....

    Put this back on Spotify!!!

  27. l.... l....

    If anyone that knows how to let the Eli Young Band know, y'all this song is the song i danced with my now wife while i was on mid-tour leave in 2008. She became my penpal after that and supported me through physical therapy as my friend i started dating her in 2014 we were married in 2015. This song is the happiest place I know to go to on hard days.

  28. G.... D....

    i love this song. i just stumbled upon it and it was crazy because guinevere is so uncommon but this made me so happy

  29. J.... F....

    That little drum roll at 1:58 🥁...... gold

  30. L.... M....

    Hope this ain’t supposed to be country cause it aint

  31. R.... W....

    Courtney ♥️

  32. M.... S....

    Does it piss anyone else off that this is the first video that comes up when you search ‘Guinevere’ on YouTube. You know, I get that there are too many songs in the world to keep track of but this title belongs to David Crosby. ELI YOUNG BANG leave the epic names to the legends. It’s like writing a song called Stairway to Heaven or Blue Suede shoes, you don’t just write a song and slap a legendary title on it like that. Shame.. you guys, being musicians, should know the code.

  33. B.... N....

    My baby sister is named after this song ❤

  34. C.... C....

    Wow their good

  35. A.... M....

    Even after all these years this is still forever my favorite song. Always my anthem song.

  36. M.... ....

    Still here💔😤

  37. S.... S....

    Explain what he means by "Guinivere"

    S.... S....

    Sixth Sense Just heard this song for the first time & I'm trying to find out the same thing. It's bugging me lol

    S.... S....

    Guinevere was the lover of a king , I believe but the wife of another. Google guinevere. But so many of us run from what we want or have. It's hidden meaning and the original story aren't one and the same.

  38. A.... C....

    How do you know when to run and when to stay. Whats okay. What isnt. When you have ptsd every day.... racy. I wish you gave me the chance to explain why i always ran from you. I thought i had to. I still run. But somehow im still here.

  39. J.... a....

    Paul always call me Genevieve she was a queen who was a pain in the ass😂☺

  40. G.... T....

    Good song but bad makeup

  41. C.... O....

    Guinevere is all time favorite eli young band song ever

  42. G.... D....

    She's got a bumper like a billboard Covered in stickers of her favorite bands
    She's got a handful of records that she turns to When she needs to land
    She's a Saturday night parade through the streets
    That all eyes come to see including me
    She carries memories around like souvenirs down in her pockets
    She should have let some go by now but can't seem to drop it
    Says forgiveness ain't nothing but a lifeless tire on the shoulder of her soul
    That never rolls
    For as much as she stumbled she's runnin'
    For as much as she runs she's still here
    Always hoping to find something quicker than Heaven
    To make the damage of her days disappear
    Just like Guinevere
    Just like Guinevere
    She don't hold onto nothin' new for very long
    Yeah she writes you in as just one more tale and then you're gone 'Cause she once fell hard 'cause she dropped her guard
    And no one gets to stay it's just too late

    For as much as she stumbled she's runnin'
    For as much as she runs she's still here
    Always hoping to find something quicker than Heaven
    To make the damage of her days disappear
    Just like Guinevere
    Just like Guinevere

    For as much as she stumbled she's runnin'
    For as much as she runs she's still here
    For as much as she stumbled she's runnin'
    For as much as she runs she's still here
    Always hoping to find something quicker than Heaven
    To make the damage of her days disappear
    Just like Guinevere
    Just like Guinevere

    Lean into me Guinevere Be mine tonight Guinevere

  44. G.... G....

    I wish this song was back on Spotify

    G.... G....

    I just heard this song today and tried to put in on my spotify and looked through every guinevere song...im so upset it's gone

    G.... G....

    It's back on mine! That's how I discovered it :) I'm in South Africa though, so maybe it's location dependent?

  45. C.... W....

    The very first song my live sent me the first night we met....he knew me before I knew

    why in God's green earth did they take this off of spotify?!?!?!?!?!

    R.... H....

    Robert Houghton bro i got so mad at that no cap

    R.... H....

    Even better question is "Why did they stop making music like this?"

  53. k.... o....

    She shoulda let some go by now.... but cant seem to drop it 😢

  54. K.... K....

    this song belongs to a one eyed beauty queen that I'm praying for😘

    A.... P....

    I feel ya... I don't know how too accept what I'm deserving of because I'm so engrained with self doubt, remorse, and shame. Rock on and keep your head up. Be blessed. We will overcome its what we do. The right one won't be run off he'll weather the storm with us cause we are worth it. The right one is out there, don't lose heart. Bless you

    A.... P....
