Wagon Wheel - Darius Rucker/Dylan Cover

Well it started out like any other day on earth,
everything accounted for assigned its worth
Its all that you’ve been working for, since your birth until you die

Grab a cup of coffee out the door so fast, gave you a kiss that could be our last,
I didn’t say I love you but you know that it will always be that way 

VERSE 2:
Step out the door, the air smells so fine
Spring thaw and the dandelions
I take one last look just to know that it is real

Then all in a moment I was beggin please
What i couldn’t plan for brought me to my knees
And as I lay there dying, a voice said to me now
Son what you wanna do with your last time here?

CHORUS:
And I said, play that song that I know so well,
And I’ll sing it out until my final breath
Its the one about love and stars and the way that takes me home
And even though we come and go alone, I know my soul’s part of a greater whole
Ima miss the sun, the sky, and the trees, but most of all I’ll miss you and me

VERSE 3:
 Open ends and words unsaid, little moments that never left your head
All come together to make the bed in which you’re lying
Cause all in an instant it could be the end,
And would you be satisfied with how its been
And as I lay there dying a voice said to me now,
Son what you wanna do with your last time here?


CHORUS:
And I said, play that song that I know so well,
And I’ll sing it out until my final breath
Its the one about love and the stars and the way that takes me home
And even though we come and go alone, I know my soul’s part of a greater whole
And Ima miss the sun, the sky, and the trees, but most of all I’ll miss you and me
And Ima miss the sun, the sky, and the trees, but most of all I’ll miss you and me

You & Me
