i met her last year at a rockabilly show
the bands weren't very good
but they never, they never really are

sometimes you get in the mood
to capture something that's been lost
or something you never, you never really had

but there i was anyway
i was hiding in the bushes outside
drinking cheap wine
just like i used to do when i was a kid
yeah, when i was a kid

she was hiding out from an ex-boyfriend
who was at the show with another girl
she's been dodging them all night long
i offered her some wine
and she finished off the entire bottle
i spent a lot of time with her after that

but there i was anyway
i was hiding in the bushes outside
drinking cheap wine
just like i used to do when i was a kid
yeah, when i was a kid

when i, when i, when i, when i,
when i, when i was a kid
