the bad news is you can't get your password back
The Google Authenticator app doesn't back up your keys to the cloud, at least not in the same way as it does for other Google Apps. If you didn't set a backup device or login mechanism before the loss you might be totally screwed. You might be able to get your info back IF you have a dump of the application data (this requires a rooted phone). Other than that you're going to have to act as if they're gone forever
