"That Was Another Country" lyrics

"That Was Another Country"

Rowing out into the air
Taking blankets to the bay
It's the same, and he was fine
And, in the first place, was around
That was another country
That was another country

I'm taking these dumb paper lanterns down
Yards, no, miles, they strung along
And me with them
And how was I supposed to know about that?
That was another country
Yeah, that was another country

Are you all- are you alright?
Are you all- are you alright?
You're my friend
Are you alright?

Rowing out into the air
Driving home, home from the bay
And we sang, and he was fine
And what is more, he was around
That was another country
Yeah, that was another country
Yeah, that was another country

But are you all- are you alright?
Are you all- are you alright?
You're still my friend
You didn't go out of my life
