Yeah Yeah Lyrics by Jackson Browne

Standing in the Breach

2014

[Verse 1]
Well you know I don't lead you
And you know I don't feed you no lies
Yeah yeah
And it's not up to me
To tell you what you see through your eyes
Yeah yeah
You know girl sometimes I just don't know
Where it is you still think you can go
Without taking my world with you
Maybe you don't realize
Yeah yeah (Yeah yeah)
Yeah yeah (Yeah yeah)

[Verse 2]
That time that I met you
There's something that set you apart (Yeah yeah)
The smile on your face, or your lips
Or the taste of your heart (Yeah yeah)
You followed me away from your home
And we're out here in this world on our own
And it's too late to go back
And it's too late to leave me alone
Yeah yeah (Yeah yeah)
Yeah yeah (Yeah yeah)

[Chorus]
'Cause you paid for the love that we've got, you paid
Yeah yeah
And you made for the heart when we fought and you stayed
Yeah yeah
Was it strength or your pride that sent you back inside
For the love that you paid for
Or was it for the love that we've made?
Yeah yeah (Yeah yeah)
Yeah yeah (Yeah yeah)

[Verse 3]
You know I don't lead you
And you know I don't feed you no lies
Yeah yeah (Yeah yeah)
Maybe I didn't come with instructions
Like some other guys
Yeah yeah (Yeah yeah)
You see me standing at the window with our world at my back
And my eyes down the road
Staring at the wreckage of a lifetime strewn along the track
And the seeds I sowed
You think I'm wishing I was some other place but in fact
I'm right here
With my shoulder to the wheel baby
And my heart in the deal
Yeah yeah (Yeah yeah)
Yeah yeah (Yeah yeah)

[Verse 4]
And you can see it's not always easy
Yeah yeah (Yeah yeah)
And maybe that makes you crazy
Yeah yeah (Yeah yeah)
But can you see that I've bet all I had
That you'd go on making me glad
That I found your love in this world
After times were so bad
Yeah yeah (Yeah yeah)
Yeah yeah (Yeah yeah)

[Chorus]
And you paid for the love that we've got, you paid
Yeah yeah
And you made for the heart when we fought and you stayed
Yeah yeah
Is it faith or your will
That keeps you hanging on still
For the love that you paid for
Or is it for the love that we've made?
Yeah yeah (Yeah yeah)
Yeah yeah (Yeah yeah)
Yeah yeah (Yeah yeah)

[Outro]
Yeah yeah (Yeah yeah)
Yeah yeah (Yeah yeah)
Yeah yeah (Yeah yeah)
Yeah yeah
