Jubal & I [feat. Brian David Gilbert]

from Fences by The Altogether

/

lyrics

[Brian]

The brim of his cup couldn't hide his smile
No the brim of his cup couldn't hide his smile
When I told the old man I know it’s been a while
But I remember the old days

We used to be the kings of this desert town
Yeah we used to be the kings of this desert town
We both had ladies with wavy hair of brown
That Jubal and I

He sipped and, ever clever, quipped
I see you haven't ditched your script
That hasn't been rewritten all this time

[Both]

Now Jubal and I watch the clouds in the sky
Burn away as we're singing a song
The sights and the smells that the old man tells me
I've missed have been here all along

[Brian]

The brim of his cup couldn't hide his smile
No the brim of his cup couldn't hide his smile
I studied the old man's face for a while
I studied his old ways

Around and around he was taking me
Around and around in his memories
But I found they just wound up ground up into tea
That we were sipping on

[Both]

And as he headed out the door
I asked him what do you live for

[Jonah]

Without a blink, he answered
Here and now

[Both]

Now Jubal and I watch the clouds in the sky
Burn away as we're singing a song
The sights and the smells that the old man tells me
I've missed have been here all along

Now Jubal and I watch the clouds in the sky
Burn away as we're singing a song
The sights and the smells that the old man tells me
I've missed have been here all along

Now Jubal and I watch the clouds in the sky
Burn away as we're singing a song
The sights and the smells that the old man tells me
I've missed have been here
All along
