The Civil Wars - 20 Years

Artist: The Civil Wars
Track: 20 Years
Album: Barton Hollow
Year: 2011
Since it's raining outside my window, today's song is the very beautiful "20 Years" by The Civil Wars. It's a perfect rainy day song. The guitar is absolutely beautiful and calming, but it's the vocals that really get me. Their voices complement each other so gracefully and the harmonies they create are soothing and almost dreamy.  I wish I could feature their entire album, but that's not what I do here. So, please go listen to the rest of the album. It's all amazing.   Click here for lyrics, video & links! LYRICS:

There's a note underneath your front door

That I wrote twenty years ago

Yellow paper and a faded picture

And a secret in an envelope

There's no reasons, no excuses

There's no secondhand alibis

Just some black ink on some blue lines

And a shadow you won't recognize

In the meantime I'll be waiting

For twenty years, twenty more

I'll be praying for redemption

And your note underneath my door

MUSIC VIDEO:

    This isn't an official music video, but a live recording in the Union Chapel in London. They sound pretty much exactly like the studio track!
