Gordon Lightfoot - I'm Not Supposed To Care Lyrics
I think you have somebody waiting outside in the rain to take you away
You got places to go, you got people to see still I'm gonna miss you
but anyway
I wish you good spaces in the far away places you go
If it rains or it snows may you be safe and warm and never grow old
I'll do it although I'm not supposed to care
I'll give you the keys to my flying machine if you'd like
I will show you the light and when you call I'm gonna come to you
And when you find someone who loves you, I'll know you would treat me the same
Just lie there, you're not supposed to care
I think you have somebody waiting outside in the rain to take you away.
That's some kind of a game still I'm glad it came down to the final round
but anyway
If you think you need someone who needs you, you know I will always be there
I'll do it although I'm not supposed to care
I'll do it although I'm not supposed to care

Gordon Lightfoot I'm Not Supposed To Care Comments
Gordon, your words come to me at the strangest times. I don’t understand why they lodge themselves in my brain, and then I come upon a situation that explains everything. I have seen you live at least twice and I sat there with tears of gratitude running from my eyes. You are beautiful, your words and music overwhelming and you have stayed true to our country. I can never thank you enough.
Who else cries when they try to sing along?
So beautiful
It's impossible not to. It's like trying to sing Dylan's "Simple Twist of Fate" along with Dylan. Start out singing and end up curled up on the floor sobbing.
A Musical Genius.
I get almost tired of saying Lightfoot is the greatest !........uhhh nope!
This song it’s so painful yet so beautiful another Lightfoot classic!
Ed Lewek again we love the same sad love songs!;This song I brought with me when I moved from NYS to PA about someone I cared about! and broke my heart 💔
Barbara Ann Taaffe Ed!
I saw him in Glasgow.in the 70's..pissed as a fart...but poetically brilliant...been with me since...he brought me to Canada..Van Isle....He came to Victoria...Blessed me with a song..
A VOICE FOR THE AGES.....
This song is painful...beautiful.
Brings me right back to 1978 and into the arms of the greatest (until then) love of my life.
Leslie Long you get one or two in life ❤️
We all had those moments!!!☯️
What a profoundly beautiful song in prose and arrangement....haunting like only Lightfoot can do. For 50 years, this one artist has been by my side through all waves of life. I never get tired of him, love his voice, love his intelligence and musical reach. Gordon LIghtfoot has been my most constant musical influence over the years. Thank you Gordon. You are so cool ! Saw you in Aspen last year at Belly Up......what a star !
My experiences with Gordon LIghtfoot touching my mind heart soul are very similar to your story...I am a former professional musician and I have a hyper sensitivity to the beauty of his chord changes and lyrics...He is truly incredible...and I too never grow tired of his songs ever. They serve as an unending inspiration to me actually.
