Blew It Again - Blue Rodeo

You can live in the house and I will find

a little place around the corner

trouble comes from the strangest quarters

it snuck up on us now without a warning

Every night I hang my head outside into the stars

it’s a wonder I can even talk at all

I walk by kids that hang on corners tripping out

afraid of what they’ll miss

late at night I hear other voices crying out

I never wanted this

I played you all my favourite songs

catch you when you fall

you look at me saying that’s not it at all

Oh my I can’t help wondering why I blew it again

I let you down

I watched your tears come splashing all around

all my life I feel like I’ve been blind

but the moments that shine

are so hard to find

Hey look those northern lights are dancing

come on out and we’ll sit here on the lawn

we won’t talk we’ll only listen

maybe we can stop what’s going on Every night we look out on what’s left of all our dreams

it’s a wonder we still can talk at all

Oh my I can’t help wondering why I blew it again

I let you down

I watched your tears come splashing on the ground

all my life I feel like I’ve been blind

but the moments that shine

are so hard to find
