My Losing Bet - The Avett Brothers

I waited for you

A hard thing to do

Knowin' we’re through

And though I don’t have to choose

To welcome you back or push you away

But wait we’re not there yet

And though I’m losing the bet

There’s still the sunset

I felt so surprised

When she arrived

Wearing a smile

Smiles soon turn to tears

Out on her back pier

After all the love how did I end here

Oh Lord, Oh Lord…
