Barenaked Ladies - Great Provider lyrics

You and I have been through this before

I owe you my whole life, nothing more

I never said that I liked you the most

You're my father, I'm your son, who's the Holy Ghost?

Where does the time go when it's not around here?

Here we stand at the edge of the drive

I'm just waiting for my ride to arrive

I wait to see if you've any last words

We pulled away, I called your name, I don't think you heard.

Where does the time go when it's not around here?

I don't know

Where does the time go when it's not around here?

You and I never shared all that much

When I leave I'll be all right, I'll keep in touch

As your road narrows, so mine grows wider

As I leave I turn and wave to the Great Provider

Where does the time go when it's not around here?

I don't know

Where does the time go when it's not around here?
