Tragically Hip - Ahead By A Century lyrics

First we'd climb a tree and maybe then we'd talk

Or sit silently and listen to our thoughts

With illusions of someday casting a golden light

No dress rehearsal, this is our life

That's when the hornet stung me and I had a feverish dream

With revenge and doubt tonight we smoke them out

You are ahead by a century

Stare in the morning shroud and then the day began

I tilted your cloud, you tilted my hand

Rain falls in real time and rain fell through the night

No dress rehearsal, this is our life

That's when the hornet stung me and I had a serious dream

With revenge and doubt tonight, we smoked them out

You are ahead by a century

But this is our life and disappointing you getting me down
