Rilo Kiley - 85 Lyrics
I'm just of real sad folk
And '85 was our best year
And she says it gets much worse
Before it gets any better
I wonder why it doesn't keep her up at night
Like it does me
We talk the way you do
I have a sweet or two
For my only plus you say
They're getting bigger everyday
So I take it with a grain of salt for the other means
I wonder why it doesn't keep her up at night
I'll be in your car
I locked the keys in your car
I'll be in your car for now
You wanna fool around? I ask
I get a sour reply
From the other wheel
That always rises to the occasion
So I take it with a grain of salt for the other means
I wonder why it doesn't keep you up at night
Like it does me
I'll be in your car
I locked the keys in your car
I'll be in your car for now
I've been a mess for some time now
I get what I deserve
For someone who leaves behind a lot
I can do better
So I take it with a grain of salt for the other means
I wonder why it doesn't keep you up at night
(Up at night, up at night, up at night)
Like it does me

I’ve been a mess for some time. Now I get what I deserve.
This song takes me back a decade ago when I was in college. It was a dark period in my life. My friend and I were having problems and our standard of communication was song choices. We drove around campus one night listening to this as numerous large clusters of snowflakes gently, silently drifted down. We just sat reflectively and took in the atmosphere.
As troubled as I was back then...and as bittersweet as the memories are when this song ushers me to the past...even though this song makes me daydream and wish I could go back, change things with the knowledge I have now, I'm glad I have this memento. It's melancholy in the most beautiful of ways.
I Would love to see a major vinyl issue of all three pressings on one album..that would be Heaven!!
kramercapriati if only! ♥️
wow, new favorite rilo kiley song
Was this song released on a album?
on a 1999 EP called The Initial Friend. Worth a listen for sure.
Noam Cohen do you know if that album is available to buy anywhere? i have been searching for years
I don't belive its available for sale unless you go on ebay, its is a rare album to buy
If Desert Blue released a soundtrack, maybe?

@Maztuhmind EXACTLY!
when she says "ill be in your car," the rhythm reminds me of that one Blue Oyster Cult song, "Burnin' for You."
Hmm sounds good
