lyrics

Remember we got so lost
Up at your parents’ place
Out in the goldenrod
With the sun on your face

We wandered around all day
Shot off some flares at night
Drinking til we felt saved
But you know we were right

I never said goodbye to you
I never thought that I’d have to
I never said goodbye to you
I don’t know how
I don’t know how

We’d go driving around downtown
Smoking in parking lots
And letting the ash burn down
On the ones we forgot

Just taking the backroads fast
Singing and laughing loud
With the radio always on and
Fading in, fading out

I never said goodbye to you
I never thought that I’d have to
I never said goodbye to you
I don’t know how
I don’t know how

Oh the way that you looked into me then
I could put a frame around it
I could hang it up
Oh the way that you sang it to me then
I’m listening
But I’m out of luck

You never felt a thing
That’s what the paper said
Your sister just losing it
And the street glowing red

As soon as the call came in
I got the hell out of town
I couldn’t stand to see them
Put you into the ground

I never said goodbye to you
I never thought that I’d have to
I never said goodbye to you
I don’t know how
I don’t know how

Jenny Owen Youngs Maine

Avalanche, Youngs’ exceptional debut for Yep Roc records, offers up an achingly beautiful exploration of loss, resilience, and growth from an artist who’s experienced more than her fair share of each in recent years. The songs are deceptively serene, layering Youngs’ infectious pop sensibilities atop lush, dreamy arrangements that often belie the swift emotional currents lurking underneath. ... more
