Great Return Lyrics by Tim Finn

The Conversation

2008

I got lost, I went far away
From my friends and my kin
When they saw me, the sellers of lies
Could hardly wait to begin

Then you stared at me with your unblinking eyes
And I made a great return
You welcomed me back with your unblinking eyes
I made a great return

In my ancestral memory
Everybody's still there
But I forgot where it all started from
And I acted like I didn't care

Then you stared at me with your unblinking eyes
And I made a great return
I finally learned you can't sever the ties
I made a great return

In the garden of earthly delights
I was tempted to roam
Like Odysseus you brought me back
To the one place I want to call home

Then you stared at me with your unblinking eyes
I made a great return
A moment of stillness then what a surprise
I made a great return
I made a great return
