The Big Music Songtext

von The 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 forever
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 manna
From 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
