Gord Downie - Wolf's Home lyrics
[Gord Downie - Wolf's Home lyrics]
He drops into his easy chair
Stares up out blank then bids
His family come and gather 'round his chair
Then clears his throat
No one knows quite what to expect
Says 'Man's a god'
When he dreams, and a beggar when he reflects
My life of get and get
I've got more than most and yet
I didn't run
I didn't vanish when I was afraid
I never asked how many out there
I only asked 'Where are they?'
My life of get and get
I've got more than most and yet
I got great touch
I learned to vanish when I was afraid
I don't know much
But, I don't try not to try
I don't do what I hate
In my life of get and get
I've got more than most and yet
The love of heart and target
The stereo has started all the brokenhearted
All I want is the dearly departed
All the hurts I started
Young and old poor hearted all I want is
All I've been afforded
My life, my love distorted
It's it's own reward but all I want is you
All I want is you all I want is you
All I want is you
