The Tragically Hip - Get Back Again lyrics

What's the deal with your dad? He don't even know my name Didn't know he'd be back, didn't know we'd been bad No one stayed to share the blame I didn't mean to do that She won't even come around Everytime i looked back, didn't realize that I was better off than now Mothers came and cried for Abel Brother Cain survived the century's end All the time that i thought was my friend Be all right till we get back again Heaven knows you are right (and they will never drag you down)* And they will never drag you down (there ain't time to lose sight) There ain't time to lose sight, getting lost in the light Is more than never being found Mothers came and cried for Abel Brother Cain survived the century's end All the time that i thought was my friend Be all right till we get back again We never could go back (and i could never leave my home) And i could never leave my home (why'd they change a face like that?) Why'd they change a face like that? If i'd never seen you, i could always dream that I'd be better off alone Mothers came and cried for Abel Brother Cain survived the century's end All the time that i thought was my friend Be all right till we get back again * Gord Downie (Paul Langlois)
