Lyrics:
There was a time when I imagined us forever
I can’t quite remember how I thought we’d work it out
I guess I would move to California or you to Boston
And I’d learn to like to stay at home
Or you’d learn to like going out
And although the stories that I tell myself about us now
Don’t take me to the grave
I’ll be an old woman with somebody else by my side
But I will always be in love with you in my memories
When we were twenty-five
I always think of you when I drink affogatos
Cause that summer we would have them every afternoon
The hot and cold was such a perfect combination
Melt all together, bitter, sweet and creamy and always gone too soon
But all of the joy we had and love we gave away back then
Well, it never went to waste
Cause I’ll be an old woman with somebody else by my side
But I will always be in love with how you loved me
When we were twenty-five
#lakestreetdive #goodtogether

Thank you Bridget Kearney for such a beautiful, soulful ballad. It's an instant classic.

[@mustafa1name]

Absolutely, credit where it is due. Bridget is a fabulous musician and those lyrics strike home hard. That voice though, man oh man

[@violao206]

Indeed, this tune is on par with Carole King and Joni Mitchell, it is that emotionally impactful. Classic, indeed.

[@barryshannahan5988]

Bridget: all that, and the bag of chips: she’s an Irish lass!

[@JM-wd7uv]

@@violao206Great song but calm down. Haha😂

[@Gto1927]

At 75, this kills me.

[@zzzs4dayzzz]

Rachel is my absolute favorite vocalist. Thought-provoking, deep, soulful. We are so privileged to have her in our generation ❤

[@johngreenwood1972]

Totally agree.

[@melmusica]

SAME same. I can't wait to hear them on tour.

[@jimmeek7849]

Same

[@barryshannahan5988]

I saw them in a small theater in Ann Arbor two years ago. Her voice just FILLS the place!

[@whydmerg4820]

I spent today listening to some of my favorite female vocalists from at least the 60's forward. I reached LSD late in the day and I think I have to agree. Rachel is amazing.

[@JasonNation72]

No auto tune, no filter, just pure elegance, soul and beauty in that voice! Rachael Price is the real deal!

[@BarneyDavey]

I'm 76, and I remember that girl at 25 with such love and fondness. We could've made it, but it wasn't meant to be. But I have my memories, and this song digs deep to rekindle them.

[@bonnieb6984]

That's so lovely.

[@twohandsandaradio]

62 and I'm a bit reflective these days. We can't be here today without everything we had before.

[@DrM11411]

Bridget is one of my all time favorite song writers. You have a depth, clarity, richness, and beauty that pervades all of your lyrics. Without Bridget, there is no Lake Street Dive. Each of you has special gifts, and they shine out in this band. But, Bridget, you are my favorite. Peace. Dr. M

[@rawrec]

Amen

[@MichelLaglasse]

Just perfectly right.

[@davidmolloy8578]

"But I will always be in love with you in my memories, when we were 25" Might be the most beautiful, and devastating line in a song I've ever heard.

[@daledodson1279]

Maybe only surpassed by “But I will always be in love with how you loved me when we were 25 “ ❤

[@bonnieb6984]

The words are hauntingly beautiful.

[@johnchudy3879]

Most of us have one of those... So deep, so innocent and pure, that first "forever" love. We thought love could conquer all!! 😢❤

[@terry8992]

My favourite is ' 'I'll be an old woman with someone else by my side'' Brilliant, the way life goes on...and on.

[@markchoate9021]

No matter how often I hear her sing, I continue to be blown away by just how good she is.

[@marymartin2275]

I'm 68 years old, and I am sobbing, thank you.

[@johncaufield9652]

Holy smokes. I'm tearing up. Wow. "I'll be an old woman with somebody else by my side, but I'll always be in love with how you loved me when we were 25." Damn . . .

[@victormitchell9895]

Her ability to tell a story is unmatched. Never ceases to amaze me. I'm old, everything I listen to is hard- but when you hear her voice you can't turn it off

[@twohandsandaradio]

That subtle change "I will always be in love with you in my memories when we were 25" and "I will always be in love with how you loved me when we were 25". Lyrical genius.

[@matthewharris3898]

Ahhhh...how simple arrangements can sometimes be the most powerfully moving of all songs. And if you told me this was written by Tom Waits I would have believed you. But Bridget Kearney has brought us a beautifully sad, soulful song of nostalgia, and ever so appreciative of the life we have lived. Thank you for your gift and giving the opportunity for it to be sung by the wonderful Rachael Price.

[@wlaisback]

Her little smile after singing about the drink being done too soon is amazing. It's as if shes acting out the character in the song.

[@trafyknits9222]

She sings one word and it can bring a tear. She's a treasure. Her voice has healing power.

[@wystemd]

in our world of constant overstimulation a simple love song is all it takes to bring us back to the essence of good music!

[@JdubU]

With respect to both, Rachel is my Carol King.. Great song LakeStreetDrive

[@MarnieVanWyk]

Just saw Beautiful, the Carole King musical, then heard this song and said the same exact thing. Bridget and Rachel are the Carole King duo of our generation ❤️

[@Techartskitty]

@@MarnieVanWykomg! Me too! You’ve said it perfectly.

[@stber7057]

I love it when Rachel sings slow ballads. When she sings the notes quietly and with feeling, her own and beautiful tones emerge. Moving and enchanting.

[@terry8992]

Might be heresy but her ability to convey raw emotion with such tenderness reminds me of Karen Carpenter. Both so unshowy but so moving.

[@bonnieb6984]

I just love her voice. This song is so meaningful for us older people. I think we all remember that young love.

[@johnfurman7311]

Rachel is an extraordinary singer. But let’s not forget to give praise to the other members of Lake St. Dive. They are GREAT musicians!!!

[@violao206]

A shout-out to Bridget for being an amazing double bassist and electric bassist (the two different skills) and also being a strong songsmith. These kids were trained incredibly well at college, which is demonstrated by the strength of their songbook. Rachael delivers a powerfully emotional performance with this tune as if she wrote it herself. I miss McDuck's unique contributions to their early days, but they are stronger than ever with their new guitarist and pianist/singer. They have tripled their firepower.

[@gundersenma1964]

How amazingly beautiful. When we met, I was 23 and she was 26. Though I tend to not be nostalgic or backward looking, how this reminds me! In 3 days we will hit 33 years of marriage. We made those adjustments. How blessed I am that she is going to be an old woman with ME at her side. Rachael, Akie, Bridget, Thank you so much for this!

[@Nt2Old2Play]

What a lucky man and what an interesting life it must have been and continues to be.

[@juanabundiz123]

This girl was born to sing. We are so freaking lucky to hear her !!!

[@maccxoph]

Dont know who i like more.. her or Grace Potter.. Two completely different voices but so strong...

[@tygerstripes3752]

Heartbreakingly beautiful song. Means a bit more to me, because my old beau when I turned 25 passed away late last year.

[@CAOTK]

Rachel's voice has no comparison!! This song/ballad is just beyond amazing.

[@carissaakers3923]

We are taking our daughter to see this amazing band for her first concert on her 12th birthday! She is going to be so excited! We are all fans in our house.

[@TStone-gh2iq]

One of the best ballads I’ve ever heard.

[@JEmmertz]

Thank you, Bridget, for putting the phrases on Rachael's lips, the keys under Akie's fingers, and a sincere and deep tingle into my soul! 👌❤👌 Most of all I hope to grow old enough to watch you all in Lake Street Dive peak and get all the credit you all deserve. (You are bloody good, I just hope to be around when everyone realize that you are just that good and awesome.)

[@beverleykatherine]

I have almost never felt more seen by a song. I was with someone for 6 years in my twenties, and we were deeply incompatible, but the love was so real, innocent, and true. These lyrics speak volumes. Thank you so much LSD for being able to convey what so many people have grappled with alone.

[@richardruoff2990]

I had to check your name to make sure you weren't the young woman I was in love with. Tis' alas, while your description matches my memories, It is not you.

[@Texn33]

Exemplary performance. This song evokes the bittersweet, wistful yearning for our lost youth, lost love and lost memories. Thank you.

[@craigschloesser6200]

Such a beautiful woman ,The matured voice of a dedicated to perfection singer. I wait in childlike anticipation for every new song. 2:53

[@waynebrowne1063]

Damn, that song is beautiful. No one sings a ballad like Rachael. Absolutely love Lake Street Dive!

[@davidbwoo]

I have loved LSD for 10 years and counting. This may be my new favorite of theirs.

[@beckymurray80]

Just come back from seeing them in Bristol. I’m 54 and that was the BEST gig I have ever been to! Such a buzz in the room! If not heard this song before (I’m very new to LSD) - I can’t stop playing it.

[@johnvermette9466]

Oh my... Akie, Rachael, you have definitely touched my soul with your interpretation of Bridget's words! You have given me a gift that I will forever cherish...closure! I am not gonna expand on it here, but just know that this song is going straight onto my playlist, at the number 1 spot! Absolutely beautiful song! Thank You @LakeStreetDive ! Much Love and Respect to you my human brothers and sisters, form a Fan in Quebec, Canada 🇨🇦⚜️!

[@rawrec]

“After 25 years I should be good at something.” You are. It’s this. Love you all!

[@davidshepherd7750]

The pitch, the timbre, the phrasing... the most distinct voice since Amy Winehouse.

[@kevindolin4315]

Life should be like Rachael's voice: beautiful, strong and heartfelt.

[@chuck3442]

"There's one song in particular on the album called Twenty Five that's kind of about a love that existed and maybe wasn't built to last but still can be celebrated for what it was." From an interview on ABC News with Bridgette Kearney Thank you LSD from a young 66 year old.

[@HQBergeron]

Rachel Price is just perfect. Such a nostalgic song by Bridget, and maybe I would have liked another verse with her playing an upper register bass solo to complete the feeling. But so very nicely done in all respects, so who could really have any complaints about this fine song? Not me, and in my memories not the girl I loved when I was 25. I hope she is well and has had a good life.

[@tomreingold4024]

This is absolutely gorgeous, the composition, the playing, and the singing. I'm very grateful for all of you.

[@elizabethwhite1068]

I recently discovered Lissie and have been going through her videos, being blown away and moved in equal measure. Maybe that's what set me up emotionally for this revelation. As I continued to scroll, other videos were recommended, but for some reason, (do we ever know why?) I clicked on this one instead of scrolling past. My gods, this is gorgeous and powerful and so heartbreakingly tender. I love the song, the voice, the piano player... Two phenomenal music discoveries in one week, I almost can't take it. I will be digging further into this one as well, I need more of this.

[@pawesalb8830]

"You already have brilliant albums, but it looks like this one will be your best. 'Twenty-Five' reminds me of EJ's best ballads. I can’t wait to see you in Berlin. Best regards from Poland."

[@timothymitchell4261]

Thank you for such a beautiful song that pulls at every string of my heart! Beautifully written by Bridget, played by Akie, and Sung by Rachel! Blessings

[@andrewbradley1700]

Absolutely beautiful song, had me in tears when they performed it in Manchester

[@danlashea]

I can’t tell you how much I love this song. Bridget knocked this out and I wonder if she arranged this. A song with meaning.

[@EldenRinging]

I've been single all my 40 years of life and songs like these pain me so deeply in my heart because I get a glimpse of what I've never had and it just magnifies my longing. What a wonderful song.

[@JayTheLane]

Mate I was 36 when I got married, sometimes it's right time right place nothing to do with a person or their lovability. Keep valuing yourself and I hope you meet someone who fulfils you needs 💜

[@redhead56]

one of the best female vocalists ever! I have followed them for years and keep them on my playlist. Best of luck and wishes for the newcomer to the family too.

[@markmoore588]

They are my playlist

[@qo2rj]

That big love that didn't work out. Ouch. so beautifully sung. Makes me remember someone.

[@LoydHaveMercy]

Man, I just love her voice. Beautiful song.

[@VOByRobbins]

Goose bumps galore--- just brilliant--- wow!

[@motfc8]

Beautiful! Never give up! I recently reconnected with a woman, from a fling over 40 years ago. The most genuine love we've ever felt, so grateful to have, what feels like, it was always there. 🙇🏼‍♂️💘

[@fredooliveira]

I just cannot describe how the second verse shot me right in my eyes and my tears start dropping and this music touching me so deeply that I can barely describe how it was. How lucky are we in heaven such beautiful voice just alive in our time?

[@timsackett2752]

Brings a lot of emotion of my own heartbreak and those I have know who have felt those same pain.

[@scottzreality3061]

Simple, stripped down, soulful, heartfelt. Thank you for being real in this artificial world.

[@siddyx]

It's been a while since the goosebumps covered my arms.❤

[@TroyMidnight1]

Wow! I thought "What Am I Doing Here" ripped me up but this! You are the definition of a real singer and what I always aspired to be able to be. Wow! ❤️

[@fredpierre6448]

My new favorite song from Lake Street Dive. What a lot of feeling in this strong performance.

[@mostguitarswins]

Simple and bittersweet. It takes on more meaning as you get older. ❤

[@mmsabre7931]

There is something so special in listening to a song for the first time that gives you a solid wave of goosebumps from the first note to the last. It very rarely happens to me.

[@itinerantpatriot1196]

That is a very pretty song. I'm an old geezer who grew up in the 60s and I came across this band about 10 years ago. I thought they were destined for bigger things. They have done okay but the fact they haven't had the kind of commercial success they should have is an indictment on what passes for the music industry these days and it says a lot about how the kids of this generation have been programmed by those soulless goons. They should be a much bigger act but I will tip my hat to them, they have kept their integrity and haven't sold-out by recording some pop-tunes that might make em money but could never be mistaken for art. So, here's to ya young folks, a salute from an old club player who likes what you do and admires the way you do it. Maybe I'll catch your show if you make it back down Florida way. Keep up the good work, it is appreciated.

[@kalstein6925]

Saw them with 10,000 people last night, they are doing ok. GREAT show, anyone would love them. Rachel Price is a generational singer, she will be around for a long time.

[@itinerantpatriot1196]

@@kalstein6925 Cool. Yes, she has a very lovely voice, great pitch control. I've seen a few videos of her working with other artists. She can sing country and jazz as good as any of em. Very talented young lady.

[@daledodson1279]

If they were performing in the 70’s they would be Superstars!

[@lyle9252]

I felt like this song was written for me. Today marks a year since I walked away from my 10-year-relationship that started in my early 20’s. He was my soulmate and will always be. But we weren’t just meant to see this life together to the end. That summer in Lisboa, where we drank affogatos everyday will forever be my favorite. Thank you ❤

A truly beautiful, moving song and as always such a soulful performance from Lake Street Dive. Will miss their concert in Vancouver in August, getting home one day too late. The last two times I saw them they were fantastic.. Such a talented group.
