The big music

The big music :: Waterboys



I have heard the big music

and I'll never be the same

Something so pure

just called my name



I have drowned in the big sea

now I find I'm still alive

And I'm coming up for ever

shadows all behind me, ecstacy to come



I have

climbed the big tree

Touched the big sky

I just stuck my hand up in the air

And everything came into colour

like Jazz mana from sweet, sweet chariots



I have seen the big mountain

and I swear I'm halfway there



(You'll never get there, you'll never get there, you'll never get there)



But I will, I will always climb the mountain

because...



I have heard the big music

and I'll never be the same

Something so pure

has called my name
