Shins 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 on Lima Lane.

So won’t you listen to me now?
There’s something I never told you,
but 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 will 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,
but 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 done for us?
(Sister you’ve known me)
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 done for us?
(Sister you’ve known me)

I’ve told the children
of that old dusty town,
when Halloween came,
I was still feeling down.
Momma, lost my sweet tooth.
What’s the point in going round?
Your boy is losing pounds.
Maybe try the lost in found.
