Long Time Running Lyrics - Tragically Hip

Does your mother tell you things 

Long, long when I'm gone? 

Who you talking to? 

Is she telling you I'm the one? 

It's a grave mistake 

And I'm wide awake 

Drive in's rained out 

Weatherman wet fingers the sky 

He pokes it out, he pulls it in 

He don't know why 

It's the same mistake 

It's been a long time running 

It's been a long time coming 

It's well worth the wait

We don't go anywhere 

Just on trips 

We haven't seen a thing 

We still don't know where it is 

It's a safe mistake 

It's been a long time running 

It's been a long time coming 

Well, well, it's all the same mistake 

Dead to rights and wide awake 

I'll drop a caribou 

I'll tell on you 

I'll tell on you 

I'll tell on you 

You've got a boatload of nerve 

But I would say you've been told 

You work me against my friends and you'll get 

You'll get left out in the cold

It's the same mistake 

It's been a long time running 

It's been a long time coming 

It's been a long, long, long time running 

It's well worth the wait 

It's well worth the wait 

It's well worth the wait 

It's well worth the wait
