Okkervil River on the radio, you never heard them before

C#mBAB
We never said sorry, no, we never felt bad about anything

Winter rolled in like a hurricane, boy, and it knocked me around

The days grew thin, I was on my bike, watching the lights come down

Except straight down, down like a falling wind

We were young, we were broke

I had everything
