That Was Another Country - The Innocence Mission

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

That was another country

Are you all- are you alright?

Are you all- are you alright?

You’re my friend

Are you alright?

Rowing 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

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, my life
