Lyrics The Avett Brothers

The Avett Brothers

St. Joseph's

We spent the night at St. Josephs

Shaking and shivering in fever

Nurses and criminals before us

I will stay here with you, my love

We sat at Lake Junaluska

Cried over where we would wed

If it's this place or any other

It's not where I am it's who I'm with

News came of a child

Born unto a world

Of people demented and wild

I will be here for you, my love

What was our reason for fighting?

Selfish and centered at best

I give up on trying

To understand why we were blessed

We'll spend the night at St. Josephs.
