Fall Of '82

I do relate to you in so many ways But I didn't go through what you must have in those early days You had to be strong at such a very young age A new life from lemonade So won't you listen to me now There's something I never told you And I'm about to try See you were my lifeline when the world was exploding You moved back in with us in the fall of '82 I fell into dark times and you were there to help me through You told me that a downturn would eventually improve And you were right, so I'm thanking you So won't you listen to me now There's something I never told you And I'm about to try See you were my lifeline when the world was exploding Footholds eroding Had you never been my friend I wouldn't be quite what you see I wouldn't be the man I am Sister you've known me (Sister you've known me) Lost in a strange world (Sister you've known me) What has it shown me (Sister you've known me) What has it gone through (Sister you've known me) Sister you've known me (Sister you've known me) Been lost in a strange world (Sister you've known me) But has it shown me (Sister you've known me) What has it gone through (Sister you've known me) October chill in that old dusty town Halloween came, I was still feeling down Mama, lost my sweet tooth, what's the point in going 'round? Your boy is losing count Maybe try the lost and found --- Fall of '82 - The Shins
